Chemicals of high concern to children (CHCC list)
Children's product manufacturers are required to report each year if their products contain chemicals of high concern to children (CHCC list) (WAC 173-334-130). Some of these chemicals are restricted under the Children’s Safe Products Act (CSPA). If a children’s product exceeds the limits on a restricted chemical, manufacturers cannot offer that product for sale in Washington.
CHCC list
Chemicals restricted and reportable by CSPA are listed below. To view a summary of toxicity and potential for exposure, click the chemical abstract service (CAS) number next to the chemical name.
We also encourage manufacturers to review other Washington state toxics in products laws for chemical restrictions that could apply to your product.
