Achieving shelf life testing requires accurate, accredited laboratory testing that regulatory bodies and marketplace platforms trust. Qalitex Laboratories provides prop 65 testing tailored for shelf life testing requirements. California Proposition 65 (Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act) requires businesses to provide warnings before knowingly exposing consumers to chemicals on the Prop 65 list. Qalitex Laboratories provides targeted Prop 65 testing to determine whether your products require warnings, protecting your brand from enforcement actions and consumer litigation. Our ISO 17025 accredited methods and detailed COA reports are designed to streamline your shelf life testing process.

How Prop 65 Testing Supports Shelf life testing

Shelf life testing requires documented evidence of product safety and quality. Qalitex provides the specific testing and documentation needed to support your shelf life testing process, including detailed COA reports, method validation documentation, and expert consultation on testing scope. Our ISO 17025 accreditation ensures your results are accepted by regulatory bodies and marketplace platforms.

What Is Prop 65?

Prop 65 lists over 900 chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. The law applies to any product sold in California, regardless of where it is manufactured. Non-compliance can result in private attorney general lawsuits, fines up to $2,500 per day per violation, and mandatory warning labels.

What We Test For

We test for the most commonly cited Prop 65 chemicals in supplements and personal care products: Lead (MADL: 0.5 μg/day), Cadmium (MADL: 4.1 μg/day), Mercury (MADL: 0.3 μg/day), Arsenic (inorganic, NSRL: 10 μg/day), Acrylamide, Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), and Bisphenol A (BPA).

Safe Harbor Testing

If test results show your product's exposures fall below Prop 65 MADL or NSRL thresholds, you can sell in California without a warning label. Our testing reports include exposure calculations comparing results against Prop 65 limits, providing documentation for your safe harbor defense.
