Sample Children’s Product Certificate for a Children's Toy

1. Identification of the product covered by this certificate:

   Children’s Toy Shape Sorter, Model “Show and Tell,” #34kTy, Blue, Red, Yellow Models

   Color can be a source of lead. Tests of each color may be required to issue this CPC.

2. Citation to each CPSC product safety regulation to which this product is being certified:
   In this section, you may list just citations. The titles for each children’s product safety rule are provided here for educational purposes only.

   15 U.S.C. § 1278a (preferred citation) or Sec. 101 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), Pub. L. No. 110-314 (August 14, 2008) (CPSIA), Ban on Total Lead Content in Excess of 100 ppm in Children’s Products.  Learn more about this requirement by clicking here. 

   16 CFR Part 1303, Ban of Lead-Containing Paint and Certain Consumer Products Bearing Lead-Containing Paint for Toys and Other Articles Intended for Children.  Learn more about this requirement by clicking here. 

   16 CFR Part 1501, Small Parts Ban for Toys and Other Articles Intended for Children under 3 Years of Age which Present Choking, Aspiration, or Ingestion Hazards. Learn more about this requirement by clicking here. 

   This example assumes a fictional shape sorter (age graded for a child ages 18 months through 35 months) that was tested using the applicable “use and abuse testing” specified in 16 CFR § 1500.52. (16 CFR §1500.52 contains additional tests like compression and flexure, which are not applicable in this situation and, therefore, testing is not required for those tests.) For children under 6 years of age, the appropriate small parts requirement is 16 CFR Part 1501. (For children between the ages of 6 years and 12 years of age, the Small Objects requirement in ASTM F 963-11 Section 4.6 applies.) There may be other labeling sections that apply to the small parts requirements, such as 16 CFR §§ 1500.19,1500.20, and 1500.121. While you must comply with the sections on labeling, additional certification of compliance to the labeling requirements in the CPC is not required.

   -----

   Toy Safety Standard, ASTM F 963-11 Section 4.3.5.2 Heavy Elements in Accessible Toy Substrate Materials.  

   This example assumes that the pieces in the fictional shape sorter (age graded for a child ages 18 months through 35 months) are “accessible,” as described in section 4.3.5.2.   Other physical, mechanical, and chemical sections of the toy standard may apply,  Learn more about this requirement by clicking here.

   15 U.S.C. 2057c (preferred citation) or Sec. 108 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008, Pub. L. No. 110-314 (August 14, 2008) (CPSIA), Permanent and Interim Ban on Phthalates in Toys and Child Care Articles Used to Facilitate Sleeping or Eating.  Learn more about this requirement by clicking here. 

   This example assumes that the fictional shape sorter is plastic and testing for compliance with the ban on phthalates is required. It is not necessary to test and certify materials that are known not to contain phthalates or to certify that phthalates are absent from materials that are known not to contain phthalates.

Small Batch Manufacturers: If you are a registered small batch manufacturer with the CPSC and are not required to conduct third party testing on certain requirements, include your registration number in this section. Recall that registration only provides relief from third party testing requirements for certain children’s product safety rules, not from every children’s product safety rule, and that compliance with all children’s product safety rules is always required.
