GPSR Compliance Statement from Ginger Betty Limited
At Ginger Betty Limited, we are committed to ensuring that all our products meet the highest safety standards and comply with the European Union's General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR) 2024. Our products are manufactured, and thoroughly tested to ensure they meet these standards.
1. Product Safety Compliance
In accordance with the EU General Product Safety Regulation, we ensure that all our products are:
- Safe by design: Our cards are designed and manufactured to minimize any risks to the user.
- Thoroughly tested: Products are tested to ensure minimum risk to the end user. Any elements that may become detached and cause harm, are fixed securely using strong adhesive pads or environmentally friendly solvent free glue, and labelled accordingly.
- Manufactured to meet EU standards: We follow established FSC forestry regulations in sourcing the paper and wooden elements used on our products.
2. Consumer Safety Information
To comply with the EU GPSR, we provide clear, accessible information to consumers, including:
- Printed Warnings: where required, we include relevant safety warnings about potential risks, such as elements that may be sharp, or become detached and cause harm.
3. Risk Assessment and Monitoring
To comply with the EU GPSR, we continuously monitor the safety of our products and conduct regular risk assessments. These assessments cover:
- Material safety: Ensuring all materials used in our products are free from harmful substances and comply with GPSR EU regulations on chemical safety.
- Risk Assessment: We asses potential risks, such as elements that may be sharp, or become detached and cause harm, and include relevant safety warnings on products and packaging.
- Customer feedback: We actively listen to customer feedback and take prompt action if any safety concerns are raised. In the event that a product issue arises, we will carry out an investigation and take appropriate corrective measures.
4. Product Recall and Corrective Actions
In compliance with the GPSR, if any of our products are found to pose a safety risk after reaching the market, we will take the following actions:
- Product recall: If a safety risk is identified, we will initiate a product recall to remove the affected products from the market.
- Corrective actions: We will offer replacements, or refunds, depending on the nature of the safety issue.
- Notification to authorities: As required by the GPSR, we will promptly notify the relevant national authorities and market surveillance bodies within the EU about any safety issues related to our products.
5. Traceability and Documentation
In compliance with the GPSR, we ensure full traceability of our products by maintaining detailed records of:
- Manufacturing/Technical Documentation: Each of our products are tracked from the manufacturing stage to its delivery, ensuring that we can trace the origin and status of all of our products.
