Setting the Standard in Allergy Protection.

What is AnchorCert Protect?

 

AnchorCert Protect is a unique UKAS-accredited testing methodology that identifies and measures a suite of 16 metallic elements that may cause Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD) and provides regulatory compliance in relation to REACH, Nickel and General Product Safety Regulations for jewellery, watches and other products including spectacles, hair accessories and clothing trims.

AnchorCert Analytical were commissioned by a leading UK high-street retailer who, following their extensive customer research, had discovered that more than 1 in 4 of their customers avoided wearing their jewellery for fear of an allergic reaction.

How does AnchorCert Protect work?

The AnchorCert Protect test method screens and determines which elements are most likely to cause a skin allergy and at what concentration within an article. The manufacturing process can then be managed to ensure that the finished article is highly unlikely to cause an allergic reaction.
