Baby textiles are heavily regulated across the US and EU. We help arrange third-party lab testing for your CPC certification — and the equivalent documentation for the EU.
Problems are cheapest to fix early. So inspection runs through the whole production process — not just at the end.
Raw fabric inspected before it goes to cutting.
GSM and weave density verified against the approved spec.
Wash fastness confirmed on the actual production fabric.
Panels and finished pieces measured to the agreed size, with shrinkage allowance.
Stitch density, seam strength and edge finishing checked on every batch.
Each piece examined under daylight and retail lighting.
Mechanical safety and flammability tested at CPSC-accepted laboratories such as SGS.
AQL sampling inspection before packing, with report and photographs.
Which rules apply depends on where you sell. These are the frameworks that most often shape an inquiry from a US or EU brand.
| Market | Framework | What it means for your order |
|---|---|---|
| United States | CPSIA / CPC | Testing at a CPSC-accepted laboratory (SGS as standard) on samples from production. Testing is scoped to your construction — for all-cotton products, lead and phthalate items fall outside scope. |
| United States | Fibre & care labelling | Accurate fibre content and country of origin on every label and listing. |
| European Union | REACH | Restricted chemicals (e.g. azo dyes) controlled and tested where your market requires. |
| European Union | EN 14682 | Cords and drawstrings safety — applies to hooded or tied products. |
| Both | Flammability & product safety | Selected by product type and destination; confirmed in writing before you commit. |
Tell us the product, the destination and the channel. We will confirm what is achievable, what it costs and how long it takes — before you commit to anything.
