All children's products, clothing, and children's shoes entering the US market must submit CPC certification and must pass a qualified test report issued by a laboratory accredited by CPSC.
The "Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act" to be implemented in the United States in the near future puts forward stricter limit requirements for lead content and phthalates in children's products, and adds mandatory traceability label requirements. Because about 80% of the children's shoes imported by the United States are made in China, the implementation of the 18835648004 bill poses new challenges to the export of children's shoes from China. The United States is a country with relatively strict requirements, especially for the control of children's products. The United States CPSC certification is an important consumer protection agency in the United States, namely the Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPC certificate is children's product safety certificate. The United States requires manufacturers and importers to be based on qualified test reports issued by CPSC-accredited laboratories. CPC certification is applicable to all products that are mainly targeted at children aged 12 and under, such as toys, cradles, and children's clothing. In addition to meeting the regulatory tests required by the CPC, related products sold to the US market for children under the age of 12 must also meet the requirements of the Tracking Label. The purpose of this move is to ensure that when a product has a problem, consumers can trace the responsible party to deal with related compliance issues. Therefore, traceability labels must be on both packaging and products (except for exemptions). If it is a durable product for infants and young children, it must also meet the relevant requirements of the Product Registration Card. Infants /children's clothing accessories and footwear regulations require CPC certification testing standards, CPC certification testing items include: lead content testing (CPSC-CH-E1003-09, CPSC-CH-E1002-08)
