Consumer Goods - Certivo
Consumer Goods
One Missing REACH Declaration Blocks a $1.5M Retailer Order. You Have 5,000 SKUs to Track.
Consumer goods face PFAS restrictions across 15 states with different deadlines. EU GPSR requires responsible person documentation for every product. REACH SVHC lists update twice yearly. Your regulatory compliance team is drowning in supplier emails while retailers demand certification proof you can't produce fast enough. Manual compliance processes can't scale with multi-tier supply chain complexity.

Sound Familiar? You Need to Act Now.
State PFAS Deadline Approaching
Minnesota and Illinois PFAS bans took effect January 2026. Maine expands restrictions this year. You have products across all 50 states and no systematic way to track which formulations comply where. Regulatory horizon scanning intelligence is critical now.
Your Compliance Person Just Left
The one person who knew where all the supplier material declarations were filed just gave notice. Institutional knowledge is walking out the door. You need a system of record, not a single person managing BOM-level compliance intelligence.
Retailer Order Blocked
Target rejected your PO because you couldn't prove PFAS-free certification for your cookware line. The buyer needed documentation within 48 hours. You lost a $1.2M seasonal order. Multi-tier supply chain transparency would have prevented this.
Board Asking Questions
Executive team wants to know your product compliance risk exposure. "Which SKUs have PFAS chemical restrictions? What's our EU GPSR status? Can we prove REACH compliance for every product?" Without continuous audit-ready documentation, you don't have answers.

Consumer Goods Compliance Is Broken
Declaration Chaos
Multi-State PFAS Nightmare
Fast Product Cycles, Slow Certifications
REACH SVHC Updates Twice Yearly
Declaration Chaos
Before
Supplier material declarations in email attachments, shared drives, filing cabinets. Nobody knows what's current. REACH declarations are with regulatory, PFAS certifications are with quality, origin certificates are... somewhere. No centralized system of record.
