- Send samples: Send test samples as required by the laboratory.

4. Conduct product testing
The laboratory will perform the following tests on the samples according to the relevant standards:
- Physical and mechanical property testing: such as small parts, sharp edges, drop tests, etc.
- Chemical Safety Testing: Detects for hazardous substances such as total lead and phthalates.
- Combustion Performance Testing: Evaluating whether the product is flammable.
