We use lead-free production methods, and are constantly testing and revising our products to comply with the Consumer Products Safety Commission regulations for lead content in children’s jewelry. We rely on independent, certified testing facilities to assure accurate results.
California’s laws are based the CPSC’s guidelines, so we also meet or exceed California's Proposition 65 regulations.
Legislative Update
A Congressional conference committee is meeting to make final changes to a Consumer Products Safety Commission reform act that includes standards for children’s jewelry ( http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:H.R.4040:). The lead standard is expected to be more strict, and will be effective 1-2 years after enactment. WE ALREADY MEET THESE TOUGHER STANDARDS!
*** AVOID CHOKING HAZARDS. Please don't give our jewelry or other small items to children under age 3 ***
Our safety policy: Argo Products, Inc will continue to meet or exceed all federal Consumer Products Safety Commission regulations for children's costume jewelry.
We will not produce or sell anything that isn't safe enough to give to my granddaughter.
Alan R. Green, President.
