Port Surveillance News: CPSC Investigators Find, Stop
Nearly 650,000 Unsafe Products at the Start of Fiscal Year
2012
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Investigators with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) prevented
more than half a million violative and hazardous imported products from reaching the hands of consumers in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2012.
Working with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents, CPSC port investigators successfully identified
consumer products that were in violation of U.S. safety rules or found to be unsafe. CPSC and CBP teamed up to
screen more than 2,900 imported shipments at ports of entry into the United States. As applicable, these
screenings involved use and abuse testing or the use of an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer. Their efforts
prevented more than 647,000 units of about 240 different noncomplying products from reaching consumers,
between October 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011.
Topping the list of products stopped were children's products containing levels of lead exceeding the federal
limits, toys and other articles with small parts that present a choking hazard for children younger than 3 years old,
and toys and child care articles with banned phthalates.
In addition to violative toys and other children's products, items stopped at import included defective and
dangerous hair dryers, lamps and holiday lights.
"We mean business when it comes to enforcing some of the toughest requirements for children's products in the
world. If an imported product fails to comply with our safety rules, then we work to stop it from coming into the
United States," said Chairman Inez Tenenbaum. "Safer products at the ports means safer products in your
home."
During fiscal year 2011, CPSC inspected more than 9,900 product shipments at the ports nationwide and stopped
almost 4.5 million units of violative or hazardous consumer products from entering the stores and homes of U.S.
consumers.
CPSC has been screening products at ports since it began operating in 1973. In 2008, the agency intensified its
efforts with the creation of an import surveillance division.
Harmful/Violative Products CPSC Stopped from Reaching Consumers
*The following list includes only seizures which violate a federal mandatory standard. Additional
products found to be defective or violative of a federal safety rule were also seized but are not listed
below due to restrictions on reporting certain information in Section 6 of the CPSA and the delay in
record updates.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable
risks of injury or death associated with the use of the thousands of consumer products under the agency's
jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the nation more than
$900 billion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire,
electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products - such as
toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household chemicals - contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths
and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30 years.
To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury, go online to: SaferProducts.gov, call CPSC's Hotline at
(800) 638-2772 or teletypewriter at (301) 595-7054 for the hearing and speech impaired. Consumers can obtain
