With the continuous expansion of the children's toy market, consumers are paying increasing attention to toy safety. Countries and regions have established strict standards and regulations to ensure that toys do not pose harm to children. Standards such as ASTM F963-23, CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act), and CPC (Children’s Product Certificate) have become critical compliance requirements for toy production and sales. Today, the Huabiao Testing team will share with you how to obtain CPC certification for Labubu plush toys listed on Amazon.
The Children’s Product Certificate (CPC) is a compliance document required by the CPSIA, issued by manufacturers or importers to certify that a product meets the safety standards of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). As a children's product, Labubu plush toys must pass the following key tests:
Lead Content: Total lead content in the base material must not exceed 100 ppm, and surface coatings must not exceed 90 ppm.
Phthalates: The content of DEHP, DBP, and other phthalates must not exceed 0.1%.
ASTM F963 Standard: Covers physical safety (e.g., small parts, sharp edges), flammability, and chemical safety testing.
Tracking Label: Products must include production batch numbers, manufacturer information, etc., to facilitate recalls.
Amazon’s U.S. marketplace requires sellers to upload test reports issued by CPSC-accepted laboratories and CPC certificates. Failure to comply may result in product removal or account restrictions.
To ensure smooth CPC certification for Labubu plush toys, sellers must follow these steps:
Confirm Applicable Regulations: Determine whether the product qualifies as a children’s product (for ages 12 and under) and must comply with CPSIA and ASTM F963 standards.
Select an Accredited Laboratory: Choose a CPSC-accepted third-party laboratory (e.g., Ningbo Huabiao Testing) for testing.
Submit Samples: Provide samples of the plush toys, including filling materials, fabrics, accessories, etc., to ensure all materials are tested.
Conduct Testing: Complete tests for lead, phthalates, flammability, and physical safety.
Obtain Reports and CPC: The laboratory issues test reports, and the seller generates the CPC certificate based on the reports.
Upload to Amazon: Submit the test reports and CPC certificate to Amazon Seller Central to complete compliance review.
