Consumer safety regulations across the European Union and North America enforce strict chemical thresholds on components that make direct or indirect skin contact. Heavy metals, phthalate plasticizers, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are heavily restricted. magtech® subjects all magnetic fastener lines to comprehensive chemical screening.

1. REACH SVHC Screening (Substances of Very High Concern)

All TPU outer membranes, silicone housings, and polymer binders used in magtech® components are certified free of all 240+ REACH SVHC candidates. This guarantees zero presence of toxic plasticizers, short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs), or azo colorants.

2. Heavy Metal Restriction (RoHS Directives)

While rare-earth elements are essential for magnetic performance, our plating, coatings, and compound matrices are certified free of toxic heavy metals, maintaining lead ($Pb < 1000\text{ ppm}$), mercury ($Hg < 1000\text{ ppm}$), and hexavalent chromium ($Cr^{6+} < 1000\text{ ppm}$) strictly within legal thresholds.

3. Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Class I & II Compatibility

Certified skin-contact safety ensures that magtech® fasteners are certified safe for sensitive skin contact, including next-to-skin activewear, maternity apparel, and infant childrenswear.
