Amazon Product Compliance for Household Cleaning Products: How to Stay Compliant with a Test Report and Label Review from an ISO 17025 Laboratory 

 In Amazon Compliance, Product Safety

Are you selling household cleaning products on Amazon? If so, you’re likely already aware that Amazon product safety and compliance requirements have become increasingly strict—especially for chemical-based products. 

Amazon is taking major steps to ensure all products on their marketplace meet consumer safety and regulatory compliance standards. For sellers in the household cleaning product category, this means having the right documentation ready, including ISO 17025 accredited lab test reports and regulatory-compliant labels. 

At Dell Tech Laboratories, we help Amazon sellers stay compliant, get their listings approved faster, and avoid costly account suspensions. As an Amazon Service Provider Network (SPN) member, our in-house lab and regulatory teams are trusted partners for ensuring chemical product compliance. 

Keep reading to learn how to meet Amazon’s evolving safety requirements and how Dell Tech can help. 

Why Amazon Is Cracking Down on Household Cleaning Products 

Amazon has become a major hub for consumers buying multi-surface cleaners, disinfectants, degreasers, and other chemical-based products. However, with that growth comes increased risk—and scrutiny. 

Amazon now requires that household chemical products meet applicable federal and regional laws, including: 

  • WHMIS 2015 (Canada) – workplace labeling and SDS requirements 
  • Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001 (CCCR) – mandatory consumer warning labels for household chemicals 
  • U.S. CPSC regulations under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) and Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA) 
  • California Proposition 65 – warnings for products with listed chemicals, when applicable 
  • VOC content limits for certain provinces and states 

If your product doesn’t meet these rules—or if you can’t provide proof of compliance—your listing could be delayed, suppressed, or even removed. 

What Documentation Does Amazon Require? 

To meet Amazon’s compliance documentation requirements for cleaning products, sellers must often submit: 

  • Test reports from an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory 
  • Compliant product labels showing mandatory warnings, hazard symbols, and safety instructions 
  • Classification data for physical and health hazards (e.g., flammability, corrosivity, inhalation risk) 
  • Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for workplace safety compliance (WHMIS or HCS format) 

These documents prove that your product has undergone the necessary testing and hazard assessments. 

Dell Tech Laboratories is ISO 17025 accredited, which means our test results meet Amazon’s high standards. We routinely test cleaning products for: 

  • Flash Point 
  • Flame Projection 
  • Corrosivity and irritation 
  • Leak testing 

The Importance of a Label Review 

Even if your product has passed lab testing, your product label must comply with CCCR 2001 (Canada) or FHSA (U.S.) regulations. Non-compliant labels are one of the top reasons Amazon listings are flagged. 

Our Amazon label compliance consultants will review your label for: 

  • Proper hazard symbols and signal words 
  • Safe handling instructions 
  • Child-resistant packaging claims, where applicable 
  • Bilingual label requirements (Canada) 
  • Consistency with your SDS and test results, when required 

If Amazon has already rejected your label, we can help you revise it for fast resubmission. 

What Happens If You Fail Amazon’s Safety Requirements? 

Amazon may: 

  • Delay your product listing approval 
  • Suspend or suppress your listing 
  • Flag your product as “dangerous goods” (even if it’s not) 
  • Require removal from fulfillment centers 
  • Remove your ability to sell in certain regions 

In worst-case scenarios, sellers have lost access to their account due to non-compliant chemical product listings. 

Avoid the guesswork. Let Dell Tech’s regulatory experts ensure your household cleaning product is compliant and Amazon-ready from the start.
