Scope

ISO 8317:2015 specifies performance requirements and test methods for reclosable packages designated as resistant to opening by children.

ISO 8317:2015 is applicable to reclosable packages for any product intended to be exposed or removed from the packaging in normal use.
ISO 8317:2015 is intended for type approval only and is not intended for quality assurance purposes.
