Shawn,
I believe the requirement is adopted from toys industry, EN71 and this best practice spreads to all other industries, i.e., electronics, electrical appliances, garments, etc. If the plastic bag has an opening perimeter of greater than 380 mm, the bag shall be made of a plastic film having an average thickness of not less than 38 microns or any area of maximum dimensions 30 mm x 30 mm shall have a minimum hole area of 1 %.
