Understand EU Regulatory Frameworks including GPSR and CE Marking

The EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) has far-reaching implications for multiple actors within a product’s supply chain.

The regulation aims to ensure the safety of goods not covered by existing EU standards and CE marking, including some already regulated but not when sold online or via distance sales. It is comprehensive, covering new products on the EU market as well as second-hand, repaired, reconditioned, or recycled items.

Most UK businesses selling consumer goods to the EU will be affected, so understanding obligations, preparation, and compliance is crucial.
