Product Risk Assessment, Inspection & Certification

How can you protect your brand and avoid product recalls of your consumer goods?

Across the globe, a number of authorities protect consumers from the possible health risks posed by faulty goods. These include the Rapid Alert System for Non-Food Products (RAPEX) in Europe and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in the US.

Having your products recalled by these organizations is bad for your business. Recall campaigns cost money, damage your reputation and diminish future sales. That is why finding a trusted partner with world-leading expertise, experience and resources to help you ensure the safety of your products has never been more important.
