As an industrialist you need to study the safety of jewellery

In a competitive market where safety and quality are paramount, safety testing of your jewelry is a major asset. It’s a rigorous process that goes beyond simple routine checks, allowing you to guarantee the safety of your products and comply with current regulations.

Jewellery safety testing: a guarantee of trust and compliance

To ensure compliance, particularly with regularly updated national and international regulatory requirements, luxury manufacturers conduct tests on jewelry to assess its safety. Indeed, these items, which may come into prolonged contact with consumers' skin, must not pose any health risks. Nickel allergy, lead poisoning, etc.: these are all potential risks that are assessed during the tests carried out! While some of the tests implemented are completely universal (determination of chemical composition, heavy metal content, mechanical properties, color, etc.), other tests have been developed specifically for jewelry items, taking into account their conditions of use.

Why carry out a jewellery analysis?

  • Consumer safety: protect your customers from potential risks. A safety study can detect the presence of harmful or allergenic substances, such as nickel, cadmium, or lead, which can cause skin reactions or other health problems.
  • Regulatory compliance: failure to comply with national and international regulations, such as the REACH regulation in Europe, can lead to severe penalties, product recalls, and damage to your reputation. A safety study ensures that your jewelry meets the strictest standards.
  • Strengthens brand image: by demonstrating your commitment to quality and safety, you build trust with your customers. It's a powerful selling point that differentiates your brand and builds customer loyalty.
