Any consumer goods that are manufactured using restricted chemicals are controlled by various government regulations – which means they must undergo a comprehensive set of specialised testing procedures.

OUR APPROACH TO CHEMICAL TESTING AND ANALYSIS

Bureau Veritas is a world leader in chemical testing and analytical testing for consumer products, using our global network of expert laboratories.

Our test reports provide reliable proof of the presence of substances of very high concern (SVHC), which informs future product design and development; and also helps manufacturers to communicate openly with their supply chain and consumers, thus fulfilling their legal obligations.

These test programmes are especially suitable for retail products with high brand equity and a long shelf life. We assess all known and potentially upcoming SVHCs – currently covering over 1,000+ substances – which allows manufacturers to plan ahead of SVHC substance evolutions and other restricted substance lists.

Our services include tests for substances such as:

  • Azo dyes
  • Lead
  • Cadmium
  • Nickel
  • Chromium VI
  • DMFu
  • Formaldehyde
  • PAHs
  • SCCP
  • PCP
  • TeCP
