Cookware Chemicals Disclosure

California Assembly Bill No. 1200 (AB1200)

About California AB 1200

At Cosmo Appliances, we are committed to adhere to all relevant laws governing our products. In accordance with California’s AB 1200, manufacturers of listed cookware must provide specific disclosures concerning their products based on whether certain chemicals are intentionally added to the products’ food contact components and handles.

Requirements for California AB 1200

Commencing on January 1, 2024 a manufacturer of cookware sold in the state that contains one or more intentionally added chemicals present on the designated list in the handle of the product or in any product surface that comes into contact with food, foodstuffs, or beverages shall list the presence of those chemicals on the product label. It is also required that an internet website address for a web page that provides all of the information required by Section 109012. “Cookware” means durable houseware items that are used in homes and restaurants to prepare, dispense, or store food, foodstuffs, or beverages. “Cookware” includes pots, pans, skillets, grills, baking sheets, baking molds, trays, bowls, and cooking utensils. “Intentionally added chemical” means a chemical that a manufacturer has intentionally added to a product and that has a functional or technical effect in the product, including the components of intentionally added chemicals and intentional breakdown products of an added chemical that also have a functional or technical effect in the product.

Food Safety of Cosmo Appliances Products

At Cosmo Appliances, we prioritize product safety as a top concern. We want to assure our customers that we have no reason to believe that our products pose health risks. The cookware items specified in this statement adhere to the applicable limits and regulations set forth by the federal Food and Drug Administration. This includes strict adherence to the requirements outlined in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations, ensuring the safe use of product components in direct contact with food.

Other USA States

Cosmo Appliances is actively monitoring additional chemical disclosure requirements across various states in the USA. To the best of our current knowledge, these requirements primarily focus on disclosing the presence of PFAS in products and providing explanations for their utilization.
