Supply Chain Webinar Series: Torts & Product Liability Issues
Webinar | 01.12.22, 8:00 AM EST - 9:00 AM EST
A failure to meet safety compliance and regulatory obligations can undo the herculean efforts to surmount supply chain challenges and get products into the US. Our Products Liability and Regulatory Compliance lawyers will discuss the impacts of current efforts by regulators to police product safety at the ports, the expectations of federal safety regulators at the ports and how to use compliance documentation to speed the process when products have been stopped for inspection. Our discussion will cover activities at CPSC, NHTSA, EPA and FDA. The panel will also discuss the challenge of counterfeit products and parts and how safety can be a lever to stop counterfeits. Given the increased costs of shipping, downstream recovery opportunities may help alleviate some of the monetary pressures and our panel will discuss these opportunities as well as the contract clauses that can allocate risks appropriately when things do go wrong.

Digital Product Passports and Digital Material Passports: What You Need to Know (Part 2)
Digital Product Passports are set to transform how products are sold across Europe. For consumers, this means unprecedented access to product information. Sustainability and compliance data, alongside other key product details, will become far easier to access and compare than ever before. As a “single source of truth” for products, DPPs may also enable EU authorities to identify non-compliance more quickly and efficiently, potentially restricting or preventing non-compliant products from entering the European market.
