Functioning as a guide to worldwide regulations and standards, the handbook indexes the rules for over 80 countries and economic areas, listing the relevant test methods and toxic metal migration limits in a simple and concise table.

The guide is primarily a tool to provide a single point of reference for testing facilities and ceramic, glass and enamel ware manufacturers, however, exporters, importers, retailers and glaze or color producers will also find it an invaluable resource to ensure their products conform to relevant international requirements.

Electronic and hard copies of the guide are now available, priced at £595 ($765 US/ €660). To purchase a copy or for further information, please contact Joanne Dawson, environmental information scientist: +44 (0)1782 764245 or joanne.dawson@lucideon.com.
