Child-resistant packaging testing, in the field.

ET Inspection is the field division of CR Testing Labs LLC. We run 16 CFR 1700 protocol sessions at client sites, childcare centers, schools and senior centers, and bring every sample back to the lab with a documented chain of custody.

Everything that happens outside the lab.

The lab writes the report. We make sure what reaches it is right: the right panel, the right protocol, and samples whose condition is documented from intake to return.

01

Field protocol sessions

Child and senior-adult panel sessions run to 16 CFR 1700.20 at your facility or a participating venue. Timing, demonstration and observation are handled by trained ET staff.

  • Child panels, 42–51 months
  • Senior-adult panels, 50–70 years
  • Portable, repeatable session setup
02

Sample intake & labeling

Every package is received, counted, inspected and labeled before a session, and inspected again after it. Damaged or non-conforming units are flagged before they reach a panel.

  • Pre- and post-session inspection
  • Unique ID per sample and panel
  • Photo record of condition on receipt
03

Integrity & opening records

Seals and closures are verified before use, and every opening is recorded against its panel and participant code, so the lab receives clean, traceable data.

  • Seal and tamper checks
  • Opening log per panel
  • Chain of custody back to the lab
Where we work

Four kinds of venue. One protocol.

Sessions are scheduled with each venue's staff, run with minimal disruption to their day, and leave nothing behind but a signed session sheet.

Client

Client sites

At your plant, warehouse or office when samples shouldn't travel or volumes are large.

Child panel

Childcare centers

Child panels with director approval and signed parent or guardian consent for every child.

Child panel

Schools

Pre-K programs, scheduled around the classroom day with staff present throughout.

Senior panel

Senior centers

Senior-adult panels in a familiar setting, with short, seated sessions.

Process

From your dock to the lab report.

The same four steps on every job, documented on every panel.

01Before

Intake

Samples are received, counted, inspected and labeled. Condition is photographed and logged.

02Before

Panel setup

Venue scheduled, eligibility and consent confirmed, participants assigned coded IDs.

03During

Session

Protocol run as written. Every opening and attempt recorded against panel and code.

04After

Return

Post-session inspection, integrity check and sealed return to CR Testing Labs for reporting.

Panel compensation

Participants are paid for their time.

Everyone who takes part in an ET Inspection panel is compensated per session. Here is who pays, what it's for, how much, and when it arrives.

Who pays

CR Testing Labs LLC

All panel compensation is paid directly by CR Testing Labs LLC, operating as ET Inspection. Packaging manufacturers and clients never pay participants, and participants never pay anything to take part.

What it's for

Your time at a session

Compensation is for attending a scheduled session. It does not depend on whether a package is opened, how quickly, or on any other outcome. Anyone may stop at any time and is still paid for that session.

Senior-adult panel · 50–70 years
$30
per participant, per session

Paid to the participant.

Child panel · 42–51 months
$20
per child, per session

Paid to the child's parent or legal guardian, never to the child.

Host venue
$150
per session day

Paid to the hosting childcare center, school or senior center for use of space and staff time.

How payment works
  1. Attendance is confirmed on the signed session sheet at the end of the session.
  2. Payment is issued within 10 business days by check, ACH or digital gift card.
  3. Payments go to the participant, the parent or guardian, or the venue's business account.
  4. If a payment hasn't arrived, our office traces it within the same week.

Rates apply to standard sessions and are confirmed in writing before scheduling. Where U.S. tax reporting rules apply, we may ask for a Form W-9 before payment. Participation is voluntary. Packages used in sessions contain no actual product.
