CPC for toddler plates

Toddler Plates designed or marketed primarily for children 12 and under are children’s products: they need third-party testing at a CPSC-accepted laboratory and a Children’s Product Certificate citing CPSIA lead and phthalate rules, plus tracking labels. The importer or US manufacturer issues the CPC — not the factory and not the lab.

Rules sellers cite for toddler plate

  • Lead and phthalate limits on plate bodies, suction bases, and printed artwork; small-parts on removable dividers.
  • CPSIA Section 101 total lead content in accessible materials.
  • 16 CFR Part 1303 lead in paint and surface coatings where coated.
  • CPSIA Section 103 tracking labels on product and packaging.

Testing focus and certification

Suction pad detachment and choke profile, microwave-warpage documentation if claimed, and phthalates on PVC bumpers. Silicone plates still need full chemical screening.

Book a CPSC-accepted lab for the exact rules, then issue the CPC in your importer name citing the report. Keep certificate and report together for at least five years.
