Many children’s products like toys and school supplies in Brazil are imported. To ensure the safety and quality of these products, they are required to undergo and comply with relevant testing and certification process.

The Challenge:
High costs and long turnaround time associated with storage of goods at Brazilian’s ports pending certification are some of the possible issues that importers may face. Having products tested at origin can minimize risks and gain better control.
