BQCIS

Verifying the Safety of Consumer and Industrial Products

Bringing a product to market requires more than just innovative design; it demands absolute confidence in its safety. BQCIS's Product Safety Testing services provide the critical, third-party verification needed to ensure your products are safe for their intended use and compliant with all relevant national and international regulations. Our global network of accredited laboratories tests a vast range of consumer and industrial goods, from electronics and toys to apparel and machinery.

Our experts help you navigate the complex landscape of safety standards, including CE marking for the EU market, UKCA for Great Britain, and CPSIA for the United States. We test for mechanical and physical hazards, chemical and substance restrictions (like REACH and RoHS), electrical safety, and flammability. A certified safety report from BQCIS not only facilitates market access but also protects your brand from costly recalls, legal action, and reputational damage.

Our Product Safety Testing Process

Regulatory & Standards Review

We begin by identifying all applicable safety standards and regulatory requirements for your product's target market(s).

Mechanical & Physical Hazard Testing

Chemical & Restricted Substance Testing

Analysis for hazardous substances like lead, cadmium, phthalates, and other chemicals regulated under directives like REACH and RoHS.

Electrical Safety Testing

Evaluation of electrical products for risks of shock, fire, and energy-related hazards, often against IEC/EN 60950 and 62368 standards.

Flammability Testing

Testing of textiles, toys, and other consumer goods to ensure they meet mandatory standards for fire resistance.

Labeling & Instruction Review

Verification that all required safety warnings, age grading, and user instructions are present and compliant.
