US Restrictions

As the public is increasingly concerned about the use of cadmium and its health hazards, 9 states in the United States have issued intensive restrictions.

Children's products

New regulations on cadmium limitation, including children's jewellery.

In these States, 3 states, including Connecticut, Illinois and Minnesota, have already set up a requirement that the content of soluble cadmium in children's jewelry should not exceed 0.0075%.

California, Florida, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York and Rhode Island are currently considering similar legislation.


Cadmium is a carcinogen. According to the latest research results, cadmium, like lead, can affect the development of brain in children, especially infants. If children often suck and gnaw the children's products with high cadmium content, it will lead to cadmium inhalation.

According to inspection and quarantine experts, so far, the cadmium limit has been covered in 1/5 states of the United States, and the consumer product safety commission is working on it.

Mandatory standard

The pace of the US cadmium restriction is accelerating. It is expected that the products will also be pferred from the US.

Children jewelry

Further expanded to most children's products.


With the gradual increase of the share of children's products in the international market, children's products have gradually become a new growth point of foreign trade. The United States has also become one of the key markets for children's products enterprises to explore.

Inspection and quarantine experts pointed out that the United States cadmium restriction may have a greater impact on the export of children's products in China. We should attach great importance to it and focus on the following aspects:


First of all, risk assessment and effective monitoring should be carried out in the production process, and check and check the key raw materials and accessories, especially sensitive materials and paint and ink materials, and improve the active coping ability, and actively improve the new production processes such as electroplating or vacuum adsorption, so as to prevent the failure of the heavy metal safety indicators of children's products. Third, strengthen communication with importers, obtain timely local laws and regulations, standards and the latest market trends and consumer information in the importing countries, and do the relevant testing with the authorized international testing organizations.
