California Proposition 65 Compliance Testing

California Proposition 65 Compliance Testing
Details:
The California Proposition 65, also known as CA65, CP65, or PROP 65, is legislation in California that informs consumers of the potential health hazards of specific chemicals. Its aim is to protect California residents and drinking water sources from substances known to cause cancer or reproductive harm. The California government periodically releases a list of hazardous substances, with nearly a thousand chemical substances currently included. Proposal requirement: Manufacturers and distributors of listed chemicals must complete warnings within one year, and warning labels must be edited in the latest format. If the company violates this requirement, it will face penalties such as federal court litigation and high fines. Radio and Television Metrology has launched California Proposition 65 compliance testing (CA Prop65) services to provide quality assurance for enterprise production, reduce market risks, enhance product competitiveness, and successfully enter target markets.

Service Content

 

GRGTEST offers California Proposition 65 hazardous substance testing, aimed at identifying the control limits of hazardous substances in corporate products.

The California Proposition 65 control list does not establish limits for substances itself. Instead, the control limits for harmful substances in products refer to federal courts and various lawsuits or agreements in the United States. These documents may include limit requirements and testing methods for certain substances in certain types of products. The high-risk substances involved in previous cases include lead, cadmium, ortho benzene, bisphenol A, and other substances.

In 2021, the California Hazardous Substances List 65 was updated twice, and the 8 new substances added last year will undoubtedly become a focus for law enforcement. These 8 substances affect numerous products and therefore have a significant impact on related products exported to the United States. The substance details are shown in the table below:
