Metal mirror frame components must pass nickel release testing (mandatory from the end of April 2026 according to EN 16128:2025 standard). Andaxun International Logistics has been deeply involved in the export of sensitive goods from Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Dongguan for many years, providing one-stop services such as full container load/less than container load, double clearance with tax included, and door-to-door service.
