| The CPSC in the United States enforces based on the CPSIA. The CPSIA is a regulation that stipulates product quality standards. The CPSIA is a safety improvement act signed and put into effect by US President George W. Bush on August 14, 2008. This act is the strictest consumer protection act since the establishment of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in 1972. |
| The CPSIA expands the scope of products that need to be tested and certified. Products under the control of the standards, prohibitions, and implementation rules formulated by the CPSC under this act are required to be tested and certified. |
| The CPSIA regulations are divided into two main parts. One part involves "Children's Product Safety," and the second part involves "Reform of the Consumer Product Safety Commission." |
