CPC Testing Reports for Children’s Jewelry and Toys on Amazon
Testing Overview
Children’s jewelry and toys—including necklaces, bracelets, rings, pendants, hair accessories, and charms designed for children aged 12 and under—are classified as children’s products subject to CPC (Children’s Product Certificate) requirements. These items are typically made from materials such as zinc alloys, electroplated metal, acrylic, plastic, fabric, or beads, and may feature paint, enamel (epoxy/dripping oil), cords, or chains.
Mandatory testing is based on the CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act) and the ASTM F963 toy safety standard; both are strict requirements for product listing approval on Amazon’s U.S. marketplace. The CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) considers children’s metal jewelry a high-risk category, with a focus on heavy metal content, choking hazards from small parts, sharp edges/points, and entanglement risks from cords or strings.
Standard Testing Items:
1. Total lead content (CPSIA) and lead in surface coatings.
2. Phthalates (DEHP, DBP, BBP, DINP, DIDP, DNOP).
3. ASTM F963 mechanical and physical properties: small parts, sharp points/edges, tension/pull testing, cord entanglement risks, and bead detachment testing.
4. Soluble heavy metals (cadmium, arsenic, mercury, antimony, barium, chromium, selenium).
Additional tests can be performed upon request, such as nickel release, REACH SVHC, or California Proposition 65 compliance.
Important Note: Even if a product is labeled for ages 13+, Amazon and the CPSC may still classify it as a children’s product—and therefore require a CPC—if it is marketed as children’s jewelry or features cartoon-style designs. A single CPC report cannot be shared across items with different materials, plating processes, chain structures, or bead styles.
Required Documentation
You will need to provide a test request form, a list of product models, a Bill of Materials (BOM), actual photographs of the product (front and back), and photos of the warning labels on the packaging. Please specify the intended age range and indicate whether the product contains cords, magnets, or detachable beads. Samples submitted must be finished, mass-produced items. If multiple color variations of the same model share the exact same base material and plating, they may be evaluated together; however, items with different materials must be submitted as separate samples. Deesev holds CPSC recognition number 1552. Complete Processing Workflow
1. Requirement Confirmation: Identify jewelry materials, presence of electroplating, cords, or small beads; determine the appropriate CPSIA + ASTM F963 testing protocol.
2. Submit documentation and send samples.
3. Laboratory receives and registers samples, then separates them into individual, accessible homogeneous material components.
4. Conduct mechanical/physical abuse testing, as well as chemical analysis for heavy metals and phthalates.
5. Review raw data and perform internal laboratory audits.
6. If the product passes, a CPSC-recognized test report and a Children’s Product Certificate (CPC) are issued. If it fails, specific risk areas are identified; the product may be retested after adjustments are made to materials, plating, or chain/cord construction.
Standard turnaround time is 5–7 business days; the timeline for retesting is calculated separately.
Report Usage and Important Notes
The CPC and its supporting test report are required for Amazon product listing approval, U.S. customs clearance, and CPSC market surveillance. The CPC must include the laboratory identification number (1552), importer information, date of manufacture, and product details.
Any change to alloy raw materials, electroplating solutions, paint/enamel formulations, or the construction of chains/cords necessitates new sample submission and retesting. The certificate is valid only for mass-produced models corresponding to the samples originally submitted for testing.
