DID YOU KNOW?

At Birmingham Assay Office, we offer a Hypoallergenic Jewellery Testing Service through AnchorCert Pro, aimed at addressing the important issue of metal allergies in jewellery.

Many people may not realise that metal allergies can affect a significant portion of the population. In fact, while Nickel is the most commonly known irritant, up to 16 different metals, such as Cadmium, Lead, and Cobalt, can cause allergic reactions. Therefore, this highlights the necessity of testing jewellery to ensure it’s safe for wear.

HOW CAN BIRMINGHAM ASSAY OFFICE HELP?

To address these concerns, our expert team uses advanced testing methods to assess jewellery for these allergenic metals, ensuring compliance with regulations like the EU Nickel Directive and REACH. As a result, this service not only provides valuable reassurance to consumers but also helps manufacturers create jewellery that is safe for everyone to wear.

With a growing awareness of skin sensitivities, it’s essential for jewellers to consider the safety of their products. By prioritising hypoallergenic standards, businesses can not only enhance consumer confidence, but also expand their market reach.

If you want to learn more about our Hypoallergenic Jewellery Testing Service and how it can benefit you or your business, visit our Analytical & Chemical Lab page or call us at 0121 820 0773. We’re here to support you in creating safer jewellery options for all!
