AnchorCert Protect — Allergy Protection

AnchorCert Analytical have tested this item of jewellery and have confirmed that it is:

• Scientifically proven to be kind to skin.
• Tested for 16 different metal allergens for your peace of mind.
• Suitable for sensitive and allergic skin.

Did you know, as many 20% of UK consumers avoid wearing jewellery or watches completely because of allergic reactions caused by metal allergens?

Most people who suffer metal allergies are allergic to Nickel but, research carried out by AnchorCert Analytical (a division of Birmingham Assay Office and accredited to ISO IES 17025:2017) revealed that there are 16 metallic elements used in the manufacture of jewellery that are known to cause Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD).

In response to this, AnchorCert Analytical have developed a unique test method to identify and measure these elements within a given item. Any item that is compliant with this test is highly unlikely to cause an allergic reaction, even if you have already been sensitised. This is in addition to the regulatory compliance of the EU Nickel, REACH and General Product Safety Regulations for a range of products that currently includes jewellery, watches, piercing, and other similar products including hair accessories, clothing trims and similar items.

By carrying out this test on this product, AnchorCert Analytical have ensured that this piece of jewellery is kind to skin and suitable for people with metal allergies and sensitivities.

So, even if you have always avoided wearing certain items of jewellery in the past, you can now confidently wear items that carry the AnchorCert Protect logo.
