XOS will sponsor free webinar on September 26 at 2 p.m. EST. The webinar’s featured speaker is attorney Quin Dodd, noted CPSIA expert and former Chief of Staff at the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Dodd will provide an overview of new and proposed CPSC regulations and requirements pertaining to the testing and certification of toys and other consumer products. He will also provide concrete suggestions for maximizing compliance while minimizing testing, administrative costs, and compliance risks. Following Dodd’s presentation, Satbir Nayar of XOS, will provide a brief overview of High Definition XRF (HDXRF) technology, with regard to reducing the cost and increasing the effectiveness of heavy metals testing programs.

Combined, the presentations will cover and overview of the current and complex CPSC Testing and Certification Rules, including the 1107, 1109, 1110, and 1112; the proposed new 1110 Certification Rule that may significantly change the who, how, and what of CPSC certificates; strategies to avoid administrative costs and compliance risks with the existing and proposed rules; strategies to minimize the cost and burden of both third-party and in-house (“production”) testing, especially for the CPSC heavy metals limits; and the latest intel regarding the new CSPC commissioners and agency penalty policies, port enforcement, and field investigation activities and tips to avoid problems with any of these. The session will then open up to questions for either of the speakers.
