Jewellery Tests
At MassLab, we offer comprehensive jewellery testing services to ensure that your fashion jewellery and accessories meet quality, reliability, and regulatory standards. Jewellery products, typically made from low-cost materials and used for fashion purposes, must be safe, skin-friendly, and durable, as they are frequently preferred by consumers.
Importance of Jewellery Testing
Jewellery products come into direct contact with the skin, which means they must adhere to strict safety standards. The metals, dyes, and other chemicals used in these products can cause allergic reactions, skin irritation, or even more severe health issues. Testing under the TAREKS framework confirms that the products meet the required quality standards and are safe for consumer use.
Scope of Jewellery Testing
Heavy Metal Analyses
These tests determine the presence of heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and nickel, which can pose health risks when in contact with the skin.
Nickel Release Tests
Nickel is commonly used in jewellery, but it can trigger allergic reactions in some individuals. Nickel release tests measure whether the amount of nickel released is within safe legal limits.
Allergen and Toxic Substance Tests
These tests analyze the dyes and other materials used in jewellery for potentially allergenic or toxic chemicals. They ensure that the products do not contain components that could harm skin health.
Color and Coating Durability Tests
These evaluations determine the durability of coatings and colors under conditions such as exposure to water, sweat, and other environmental factors. They assess whether the products maintain their appearance and resist fading or abrasion over time.
Mechanical Durability Tests
These tests measure the mechanical strength and resistance to breakage or detachment of jewellery products. They evaluate whether the accessories are robust enough for long-term use.
