California Proposition 65 Compliance Pack

California Proposition 65 Compliance Pack for Toys, Hardgoods and Furniture Industry 

With over 900 chemicals of concern listed, California Proposition 65 impacts most consumer goods, making ensuring compliance difficult. It also requires businesses to notify consumers about significant amounts of the associated chemicals in the products they purchase with ‘clear and reasonable’ warning labels. 

As part of our Sustainability Services, the Proposition 65 Sustainable Chemistry Services offered by the Eurofins Toys & Hardlines network of labs have been designed by our qualified toxicologists and specialist chemists to help support you through the challenges and complexities of this wide-encompassing legislation.  

Our offering includes: 

Package 1: Basic settlement testing  

We can support you by testing toys, childcare, furniture and household products for all known settlement chemicals. These are chemicals which have been subject to a settlement case and can be tested to a defined limit. 

Package 2: Smart screening 

Conducted on either raw materials, chemicals or finished products, this is a screening methodology to quickly detect multiple chemicals of concern within Proposition 65. 

Package 3: Toxicologist support 

We conduct exposure assessments to support with warning requirements and support with determining “No Significant Risk levels (NSRLs) and Maximum Allowable Dose Levels (MADLs) in the absence of OEHHA-derived Safe Harbor Levels. 

We can work with you to design a valuable and cost-effective risk-based testing program using Smart testing principles. If chemicals are detected, we can provide a fully comprehensive range of services around exposure risk and labelling with a board-certified Toxicologist (via the American Board of Toxicology, a strict requirement to offer toxicological services within the State of California). Should results indicate the presence of controlled chemicals, then we can also support with supply chain engagement, root cause analysis and management of replacement chemistries.
