CPSC Stops Nearly 3 Million Units of Imported Products in Q3

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) investigators continued to improve the agency’s ability to enforce product safety compliance at U.S. ports by stopping nearly 3 million units of consumer products that violated U.S. safety rules from reaching consumers in the third quarter. This was nearly three times the number of units stopped in the previous two quarters combined. CPSC investigators screened more than 5,700 different imported consumer products and identified 420 of the screened products as being noncompliant with CPSC’s safety rules.
