Children’s Product Safety Testing – LEGEND Technical Services, Inc.

Children's Product Safety Testing

The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) outlines children’s safety product rules which requires third-party testing for compliance by a CPSC-accepted laboratory. Since 2010, LEGEND has been a CPSC-accepted laboratory that performs determination of phthalates and lead in children’s metal jewelry, metal and non-metal products. We perform testing at various stages of manufacturing for initial certification, material change, periodic testing, and component part testing of children’s products.
