Is composite testing (both for lead and phthalates) allowed?
A. Composite testing is not allowed for lead in surface coatings, lead in substrates, or phthalates. Further confirmation will be provided by the CPSC during the public meeting on Nov 6. Q. Are certificates for sub-components (i.e. YKK zippers) accepted? A. The certificates of compliance supplied by a component manufacturer will not be accepted. As per CPSIA, the certificate of compliance has to be based on the testing of the end/final product.
