Labeling of Hazardous Art Materials Act - (LHAMA) Certifications

MJN Associates, LLC evaluates art products for compliance with these LHAMA Certification regulations and issues a statement of compliance for those products. In addition, MJN Associates, LLC will recommend appropriate labeling precautionary statements when required.

On November 18, 1988, the Labeling of Hazardous Art Materials Act was signed into law (Public Law 100-695). This law requires that all art materials be reviewed to determine the potential for causing a chronic hazard and that appropriate warning labels be put on those art materials found to pose a chronic hazard. The term "art material" includes "any substance marketed or represented by the producer or repackager as suitable for use in any phase of the creation of any work of visual or graphic art of any medium."
