Declaration of Compliance

Handmade Ceramic Tableware

All of our ceramics are handmade in our UK studio using carefully developed, non-toxic glazes. Each piece is artisan made in studio.

We create both functional tableware and decorative art pieces.

To keep things clear:

  • Tableware:
    All glazes used on functional pieces are lead-free and cadmium-free, formulated by us from raw materials sourced from trusted suppliers.
    These glazes are safe for everyday food use.
    Representative pieces are checked and production records are maintained for full traceability.

  • Decorative pieces:
    Some ceramics are decorative or are open to interpretation of preferred use so are not intended for food contact.
    These pieces are clearly marked both online and on their physical labels as:
    Decorative Use Only or Not Food Safe.

  • Traceability:
    Each piece includes a batch number and production records are kept for safety and compliance purposes.

Sustain Ceramics declares that the ceramic tableware produced under the brand complies with UK General Product Safety Regulations and EU Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 on materials intended to come into contact with food.

  • All glazes used are lead-free and cadmium-free, formulated by me personally.

  • Raw materials are sourced from reputable suppliers, and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are on file.

  • Production records are maintained for traceability of all batches newly made.

  • These products are safe for their intended use as tableware when handled as described.

Ceramics that are not not intended for food will be listed on the product page and any appropriate labels.

My UK address is currently the point of contact until an EU-based representative is appointed.

Textiles

We make small-batch, handmade textiles with care. Because we sell artisan pieces made abroad, we want to be clear about how we handle safety and recalls for EU customers.

What’s on the label: fibre content — country of origin — batch number. We keep records for every piece.

We’re arranging an EU-based representative (required under EU GPSR). Until then, our UK office will be the contact for any safety or recall issues. You can read full details below — and you’ll see this information before checkout.
