Due to the diverse materials used in home coffee makers, the following chemical substances require special attention:
| Components | Hazardous Substances
| Plastic Casing, Water Tank | Phthalate (DEHP, etc.), Bisphenol A (BPA), Formaldehyde
| Metal Components | Lead, Cadmium, Nickel, Hexavalent Chromium (Electroplated Layer)
| Wires, Power Cords | Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBBs), Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs), Lead
| Rubber Seals | Phthalate, Lead
| Coatings, Solder | Lead, Cadmium
| Heating Element | Nickel, Chromium
II. Application Process
1. Determine Product Scope: Clarify the coffee maker model, material composition, and source of components.
2. Select Testing Institution: Choose a third-party laboratory with CPSC and ISO 17025 accreditations (e.g., DEZEW Testing CNAS Registration No.: L8083)
3. Sample Testing:
Provide finished products or key components.
The laboratory will conduct chemical analysis according to the California Proposition 65 list.
Key tests: Lead, Cadmium, Phthalate, Formaldehyde, Bisphenol A, etc.
4. Report Issuance: An English test report will be issued after testing (usually 7-15 business days).
5. Compliance Assessment:
Compare with California Proposition 65's MADL (Maximum Permissible Dose Level) or NSRL (No Significant Risk Level).
Components exceeding the limits must have their materials replaced or warning labels affixed.
III. Warning Label Requirements
If the product contains substances exceeding the limits, the following warning statement must be affixed (primarily in English):
⚠ WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including [chemical name], which is known to the State of California to cause cancer/birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Certificate Validity: Usually 1 year, requiring annual renewal or retesting upon material change.
V. Compliance Recommendations
1. Source Control: Sign a California Proposition 65 Compliance Agreement with suppliers, requiring RoHS, REACH, and other testing reports.
2. Material Substitution:
Replace BPA-containing PC materials with food-grade PP or Tritan™.
Use lead-free solder and environmentally friendly electroplating processes.
3. Document Retention: Test reports, warning label photos, and purchase records should be archived for at least 2 years.
4. Preventing Litigation: California Proposition 65 lawsuits are often initiated by law firms; purchasing product liability insurance is recommended.
