The actual requirement is "2) The ENCLOSURE, and any baffle or flame barrier, shall be made of metal (except magnesium) or of non-metallic materials having a flammability classification of *V-1 or better*, of IEC 60695- 11-10."
Keep in mind the "or better". Most enclosures I have ever seen are rated V-0 or 5V which is better than V-1. The flammability rating of plastic is based on its thickness. Molded plastic parts can vary in thickness so using a better material gives you some margin.
