Product Regulatory Compliance: Product Safety, Labelling and CE-marking

Our lawyers are experienced in Product Regulatory Compliance law

We advise clients on both contentious and non-contentious matters relating to product safety, labelling, CE-marking and product placement.

We regularly provide FTSE 100 clients with advice on how to bring products to market. We can provide co-ordinated global advice from a single UK contact and can advise on topics ranging from packaging and labelling through to highly complex environmental regulations such as REACH and ROHS.

Our lawyers can advise on Product Safety law

We advise clients involved in the design and manufacture of products on the regulatory regime that surrounds their use and supply. Product safety issues can arise in a range of scenarios, including direct consumer risk, inadequate safety instructions, or inherent defects not uncovered during manufacture. Our advice is delivered in a timely manner and delivered in a way that recognises the commercial demands on a client.

Our lawyers can advise you on Product Labelling law

From cosmetic labelling through to food labelling we can advise on highly complex labelling issues for our clients. Some of those issues previously advised on include the requirements for warning labels, language and translation obligations, and the additional criteria where products are provided to consumers.

Our lawyers can advise on CE-marking law

We have considerable experience advising on CE marking obligations, as well as wider issues relating to conformance with relevant EU and domestic standards. Products range from machinery, lifting equipment and vehicles to toys, consumer products and electrical equipment.
