Sassenberg, April 11, 2024 – With complyhub, gds GmbH is launching a web-based, scalable platform for managing product compliance requirements. Companies can use this platform to manage their data concerning their products, materials and suppliers so that they are in a position to implement compliance with the RoHS, REACH and also the Act on Corporate Due Diligence Obligations in Supply Chains (Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz (LkSG)) and document such.
What Product Compliance is all about
Product compliance refers to the adherence and fulfillment of all relevant legal requirements, regulations and standards that apply to a specific product. This includes both formal and material aspects of compliance, including safety standards, environmental requirements, health regulations and other regulatory requirements.
In addition to regulations and directives of the European Union (EMC, RoHS, the Eco-Design Directive, etc.), there are numerous country-specific regulations and specifications imposed by national and international standards committees.
Compliance with legal requirements for products is just as relevant as other functional or safety-related product specifications.
Product compliance should therefore be an integral part of the product development process. This is the only way to avoid potential legal problems, liability risks and negative effects on your brand image. On the other hand, an efficient product compliance process helps to ensure consumer safety, strengthens the trust of your customers, facilitates market access and promotes environmental protection.
Mr. Kilian Leufker, Service Consulting Project Manager and product owner of the complyhub platform emphasizes, “Adherence to product compliance requirements is not only a legal obligation, but also the key to gaining trust, assuring safety and sustained success. Talking with our customers has clearly revealed the need for a simple solution for managing the various requirements associated with product compliance. For this reason, we have pushed forward the development of complyhub and successfully brought it to market maturity.”
How complyhub supports the compliance process
The web-based, scalable platform, complyhub, is specifically designed to help companies structure and document the due diligence obligations with the aid of clever workflows. Product compliance requirements are queried digitally within complyhub. This is what makes it possible to efficiently meet the requirements in an automated manner to a large extent.
The platform significantly simplifies communication with vendors, customers and market surveillance authorities. Using this platform, companies can manage their data concerning their products, materials and suppliers so that they are in a position to implement compliance with the RoHS, REACH and also the Act on Corporate Due Diligence Obligations in Supply Chains (Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz (LkSG)) and document such.
This effectively helps companies fulfil external expectations and legislation while simultaneously mitigating risks. With complyhub, a system is available that meets the wide variety of product compliance requirements and that continuously advances.
