Ensure Compliance with California’s Proposition 65 Regulations
California’s Proposition 65 (Prop 65) requires businesses to warn consumers about exposure to chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This includes a wide range of contaminants such as heavy metals, acrylamide, BPA, pesticides, and other listed chemicals commonly found in nutraceuticals, dietary supplements, and food & beverage products. Failing to comply with Prop 65 regulations can result in costly fines, lawsuits, and damage to brand reputation. Southern Element Labs offers comprehensive Prop 65 testing to help businesses identify and mitigate risks, ensuring compliance and consumer trust.
