Overview
SIST EN 1860-4:2023/oprA1:2026 is a European draft amendment standard developed by CEN that specifies the requirements and test methods for single use barbecues burning solid fuels. This amendment focuses on aligning key terms and definitions within the standard with those in EN 1860-1:2024, ensuring consistency for manufacturers, distributors, and testing agencies across the European barbecue appliances industry.
Single use barbecues, commonly referred to as disposable or one-time-use grills, are designed for outdoor cooking and are popular for their convenience and portability. Ensuring their safety and performance through standardized requirements is crucial for both manufacturers and end-users.
Key Topics
SIST EN 1860-4:2023/oprA1:2026 introduces several important adjustments:
- Definition Updates: All key terminology - including “barbecue,” “fuel compartment,” “grate,” “usable area,” “cooking grid,” and “silk paper” - are updated for consistency with EN 1860-1:2024.
- Thermal Test Procedure Adjustment: The amendment specifies the use of white silk paper (weighing 12 g/m² to 25 g/m²) to cover plywood during thermal tests, aligning with updated safety requirements.
- Reference Updates: The bibliography now references EN 1860-1:2024, supporting harmonization across relevant barbecue standards.
Benefits of the Amendment
- Clarity: Harmonized terms improve understanding across different national markets and languages.
- Safety: Updated testing methods contribute to higher product safety and consumer protection.
- Regulatory Alignment: Manufacturers can more easily ensure compliance with both current and evolving regional regulations.
Applications
The practical applications of SIST EN 1860-4:2023/oprA1:2026 cover several areas in the barbecue and outdoor cooking industry:
- Single Use Barbecue Design: Provides manufacturers with clear guidelines for the design and construction of disposable barbecues that burn solid fuels, enhancing user safety and product reliability.
- Product Testing: Accredited laboratories use the prescribed test methods, such as the modified thermal test, to evaluate barbecue safety performance before products enter the market.
- Retail and Consumer Guidance: Retailers can reference the standard to source compliant products, and consumers benefit from increased confidence regarding the safety and quality of single use BBQ products.
- Regulatory Compliance: Helps ensure that products distributed in the European Economic Area meet uniform safety and quality benchmarks, minimizing legal risk for suppliers.
