Product examples

Here are some examples of product categories for which this service is relevant:

Textiles

Children’s products

Furniture

General consumer products

Note: We only check if a certain file item is present (i.e., a company name that is indicated as the manufacturer). However, we cannot verify if this data is correctly specified (i.e., the actual name of the manufacturer). Here are some other examples:

a. Some regulations may specify that “installation instructions” is required. If so, we can only assess if such instructions are present. We cannot determine if these are correct as this would require product specific knowledge that we do not have.

b. Some regulations may require technical documentation that includes product drawings or risk assessments. We can only assess if such information is present. We cannot determine if the drawings or risk assessments are accurate.

FAQ

What is the purpose of this service?

This service can help you understand if your label files, documents, and test reports comply with certain parts of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

What is this service based on?

This service is based on the specified regulations of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 (see specified version in the service scope). No other regulations, directives, guidance pages, documents, standards, or other information are taken into consideration.

What do I need to start the process?

We will contact you to request the following information once you have placed your order:

• Product information
• Company information
• Label file
• Document file
• Test reports

What if I don’t have all the files?

In that case we will review what we have. However, we will still list items that can be useful when creating your own files.

For example, if you do not have a label file, we will still include items from the covered articles/regulations/parts in the report. This can be useful when creating your own label files.

What do I receive after the process is completed?

You will receive a report that will help you understand the following:

• What is correct
• What is missing

In some cases, we also specify recommended actions.

How many products do you review?

We review files and information for a single product per service order.

How long does the process take?

Normally 7 business days from the time we have received all the requested information. Note that a delay in providing the required information will also result in a delayed delivery.

Do you compare the files and information to all General Product Safety Regulations 2005 requirements?

No, we do not compare your files to the entirety of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

Which parts of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 are covered in the check?

The specific regulations the service is based on can be found on this page. We also specify the regulations and provide source texts in the report.

Why is the check only based on parts of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005?

If the service was based on a review covering the entire General Product Safety Regulations 2005, then the process would be many times more time consuming. This would also result in a significantly increased price.

We have selected parts of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005 that we know manufacturers and importers often get wrong. That being said, we do not claim that the review is based on the entire regulation. This means that other requirements in the regulation can still apply to your product, even though these are not mentioned or referenced in the report.

Do you guarantee or certify compliance with the General Product Safety Regulations 2005?

No, we do not guarantee or certify products as compliant with the General Product Safety Regulations 2005. We do not conduct a physical evaluation or testing process of the product. Further, we only review and check the files and information provided.

Further, we operate based on the assumption that testing companies provide a truthful verification of test reports upon request.

Will this report become outdated at some point?

Yes, regulations can be amended or even replaced by entirely new legislation. For example, the articles/regulations/parts that the review process is based on can be subject to change.

Note that we always specify which version of the regulation the report is based on.
