As the product contains high levels of lead and might cause health problems, it is important that you are open and transparent with your customers by disclosing the origins of the product. Simply labeling it as “Made in China” would not avoid any legal responsibilities since proper labelling requirements need to be met. In order to limit your liability, we recommend conducting risk assessments and informing your customers about potential health risks associated with this product. Ultimately, you have a responsibility to make sure that consumers are fully aware of what they are purchasing.

The use of the term "made in China" does not legally remove the company's responsibility to disclose the full information about the product. Failure to do so could put them at risk for potential legal liability. It is important to remember that labelling a product as made in China cannot evade legal accountability and regulatory requirements if applicable, so it is best to ensure full transparency with regards to product origins and safety information.
