All packaging materials and components used on an item sold in the U.K. (US) will be tested to 94/62 EC (US TPCH).
This law sets limits for the amount of toxic heavy metals that are present in outer and inner packaging materials and
components such as color box or color label, master carton, stickers, tape, banding materials, wrapping papers,
banding straps and inks. This regulation applies to everything tested for Costco Wholesale- apparel, home textiles and
hard goods.
Costco Wholesale requires that the lab test all materials and/or components. The lab can use up to 5 like components in
one composite test. No more than a total of 5 composite test should be conducted (Like materials to be composited and
each composite containing an equal weight of the 5 components).
If result exceeds 100ppm, testing to be performed on each individual component within the composite and results will
be reported per each individual component.
ANALYTICAL METHOD: A weighted portion of the dried substrate material is digested with nitric acid for total metals
content. After digestion, the sample is filtered and brought to a known volume, and then analyzed for the four metals
using AA or ICP analysis.
