The program also includes a five-year review of product formulations to meet the requirements of the Labeling of Hazardous Art Materials Act. The ACMI product certification program includes an on-going review of the latest scientific and regulatory information available to keep the program current. Each product in the program undergoes extensive toxicological testing that covers both acute and chronic toxicity concerns before it is granted the right to bear the ACMI certification seal. In 1982, the program was expanded to include a much broader range of art materials, including adult products, ensuring that they are non-toxic (AP Seal) or carry appropriate health warning labels (CL Seal) where necessary.ĪCMI-certified product seals (AP Approved Product and CL Cautionary Labeling) indicate that these products have been evaluated by a board-certified toxicologist and are labeled in accordance with federal and state laws. We are very proud of the fact that nearly a quarter of these companies are long-standing members (30+ years) of ACMI.įor over 80 years, the ACMI program for children’s art materials has certified that these products are non-toxic using the AP Seal. Many small companies, as well as large ones, participate in the ACMI product certification program. (ACMI) is an international association of more than 200 art, craft and creative material manufacturers which seeks to promote safety in art and creative products through its certification program.
