“A General Certificate of Conformity, such as the CPSIA sheet Stahls publishes for Siser EasyWeed, is the certificate the CPSC requires for a children's garment decorated with that film.”
Copied
CPSC's own page distinguishes the General Certificate of Conformity (GCC), which applies to general-use products, from the Children's Product Certificate (CPC), which Section 14 of the CPSA and 16 CFR part 1110 require for children's products based on third-party testing to applicable children's product safety rules. The Stahls document is explicitly titled a 'General Certification of Conformity,' meaning it is the wrong certificate type for a children's garment. CPSC states children's products 'require third-party testing and certification' via a CPC, not a GCC, so the claim contradicts the source.
The span it rests on
Domestic manufacturers and importers of certain general-use products are subject to different testing and certification requirements.
