The tested school tools met the requirements
The nationwide consumer protection study ordered by the Ministry of Innovation and Technology (ITM) ended with a good result: the 40 different color pencils, watercolors and plastic kits all complied with the requirements – Világgazdaság Online wrote.
The ITM’s accredited chemical laboratory investigated the lead, cadmium and copper content of school supplies, which previously used as a coloring agent could cause damage to the body beyond the limits, according to the statement from the ministry. (Vg.hu)
