Fashion Jewelry Testing

Fashion jewelry, especially imitation accessories, often contains heavy metals such as nickel, cadmium, and lead. These substances can migrate through sweat and cause allergic reactions, eczema, and even systemic health risks. The safety of children’s jewelry is of particular public concern. To address these risks, countries including the United States, European Union, Canada, and China have enacted strict regulations to limit hazardous substances in jewelry products.

As one of the world’s largest jewelry manufacturing hubs, China recorded over USD 30 billion in export value in 2022. To remain competitive and avoid compliance issues, manufacturers and exporters must fully understand international regulatory requirements and conduct standardized testing from material selection to finished product inspection.
