Plastic products require REACH testing. This is because some plastic products may contain chemicals that are harmful to human health and the environment. Through REACH testing, it can be ensured that these plastic products comply with relevant safety standards and do not pose a threat to human health and the environment.
The REACH testing projects for plastic products in the European Union mainly include the following categories:
1. Testing of polymer materials: Testing of polymer materials for plastic products to determine their chemical composition and physical properties.
2. Additive testing: Plastic products may contain various additives, such as plasticizers, flame retardants, etc. These additives need to be tested to determine their impact on human health and the environment.
3. Heavy metal detection: Some plastic products may contain heavy metal elements such as lead and cadmium, and these heavy metals need to be tested to ensure their content is within the specified range.
The REACH testing process for plastic products in the European Union is as follows:
1. The applicant fills out the REACH application form (provided by the testing agency).
2. Provide a list of product components (BOM).
3. The testing staff will determine the testing cost based on the provided materials.
4. After the applicant confirms the quotation, sign the quotation contract and service agreement, pay the full project fee, and prepare the test samples.
5. After the test is completed, the engineer prepares the data and issues the REACH test report.
6. Mail paper reports or send electronic original reports.
