Ardene voluntarily complies with Health Canadas Draft Proposal for Cadmium Guidelines in Childrens
Jewellery. Specifically, any jewellery product for children that is manufactured, imported, advertised or
sold in Canada adheres to the requirements in the Guidelines which limit total cadmium to 130 mg/kg.2
In fact, Ardene exceeds the Guidelines in that none of our Ardene Girl products contain any cadmium, as
they are all made of plastic. Additionally, although Health Canadas Canada Consumer Product Safety Act
(CCPSA) does not prohibit cadmium in adult jewellery and Health Canada has advised that there is no
known risk associated with simply wearing jewellery which contains cadmium3, we have previously
advised our suppliers that the cadmium content in all of our jewellery must respect the 130 mg/kg
threshold.
We have not at any time received any customer reports of incidents related to cadmium.
While we are proud of this track record, we are constantly working to improve our processes and offer
the best-possible customer experience. This includes ongoing initiatives related to working with store
staff to help them consistently provide exceptional customer service.
