Updates across various furniture standards and the latest regarding the UK Flammability and REACH Regulations
This 43 page guide aims to give an understanding the scope of the General Product Safety Directive (GPSD).
Essentially the Directive ensures that only safe products are sold on the market. This includes new, second-hand and also reconditioned products, as well as commercial products which may end up in a consumers house. The Directive also complements sector specific legislation (such as the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988). Furthermore the Directive governs processes for tracing potentially dangerous products on the market to ensure that can be traced and removed to avoid any risks to consumers.
