Technical data
Our number on the left, the legal limit on the right.
Dimensional values are from the current mould and carry the tolerance we hold, not the tolerance we are allowed. Migration values come from an accredited laboratory report issued against EN 1388-2.

Values are from the most recent production run and the laboratory report that accompanies it. A Declaration of Compliance under Regulation (EC) 1935/2004 is issued per shipment and names the batch it covers.

Where we sit in the window
Passing is binary. The margin is the product.
Every glass sold into the EU has to clear the same migration limits. What separates one supplier from the next is how much room is left underneath them after a hot fill, a scale-heavy dishwasher and two years of service.
- Lead migration0.05mg/l0limit max 4 mg/l · 84/500/EEC ≤ 4.05
Measured under EN 1388-2: 4 % acetic acid, 22 °C, 24 h.
- Cadmium migration0.01mg/l0limit max 0.3 mg/l · 84/500/EEC ≤ 0.30.375
Same extraction. Undecorated glass has no cadmium source; the number stays at the detection floor.
- Thermal shock resistance42K20limit min 30 K · Commercial wash ΔT ≈ 30 K50
Axis narrowed to 20–50 K. A 65 °C wash into an 85 °C rinse is the load that breaks glasses in service.
- Capacity tolerance1.8%0limit max 5 % · Trade tolerance ± 5 %6.25
Matters where tea is portioned: a 5 % spread across a rack is visible in the cup.
Migration figures are from the accredited laboratory report for the current batch. Dimensional figures are our own process capability, sampled hourly on the line.

Compliance
The document set a European buyer opens first.
Glassware is bought on food-contact compliance, not on a quality-system logo. The Declaration of Compliance and the migration report are the two documents that decide whether a container clears; everything else is supporting.
