Is the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter regulated by the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), separately from EPA?

The company's classification is under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, and it publishes no position on the US Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The company classifies the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter as a device under Section 2(h) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. § 136(h), and 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(a). The Statement of Classification states: “A device is not required to be registered under FIFRA section 3.” It lists the requirements that 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(b) applies to a device instead: labelling; establishment registration and reporting; books and records; inspection of establishments; violations, enforcement and penalties; import and export; child-resistant packaging; and the Agency's authority under FIFRA section 25(c)(4). The company accepts that each of them applies to the article. No authority has approved, registered, endorsed or cleared the filter; the company classifies its own article.

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
