California 65 List is a list of chemicals known to cause cancer, reproductive system or other cumulative toxicity published by California and updated annually. This list, which must be updated at least once a year, has grown to include approximately 1000 chemicals since it was first published in 1987. California 65 does not set limits for hazardous substances in products, but can refer to existing litigation cases or agreements for relevant categories of products. Enterprises need to pay attention to the use of the chemicals in the list in products, especially the substances involved in previous cases and the new chemicals added by the list, and carry out supply chain investigations for these high-risk chemical substances, which can be tested if necessary.

Products containing the listed chemicals are required to affix warning signs according to the specified requirements, otherwise it may face lawsuits and huge fines. AGC can provide specific solutions for products to respond to California 65, selectively screen California 65 controlled substances for products and materials used to help enterprises cope with environmental impact.
