Non-profit groups don't have this problem. What you don't appear to have considered is that people will probably tend favor the products of those companies that willingly submit their products for testing. The stamp of approval of a testing agent would be a selling point. And if people don't favor such products, it means they don't care so much about these safety considerations, and therefore shouldn't be forced to support government safety enforcement agencies.
