How does a supplier generate a Certificate of Compliance if the manufacturer or supplier does not supply one?
If the manufacturer or supplier will not provide certification, the supplier must test the package for the presence of the regulated metals. If the regulated metals are detected, even if the sum of the four metals falls below 100 ppm, it is prudent to discontinue the purchase of the package until the manufacturer or supplier certifies that the regulated metals are not due to intentional introduction.
