our client’s challenge

One missed logo exposed bigger risks

The client’s label supplier flagged a missing recycling logo in Spain, prompting fears they may have overlooked other regulations too.

With no in-house compliance expertise and tight timelines, they needed fast, detailed insights across a complex web of regional requirements.

The risks were clear: fines, customs delays, or even being blocked from entering certain markets.

how we helped

A country-by-country audit to map risk and action

We reviewed the client’s existing packaging and launched a full audit covering 49 countries.

Working market by market, we cross-checked labelling requirements, including recycling, care instructions, languages, and packaging standards, and flagged all non-compliances.

Findings were delivered in a clear spreadsheet with a walkthrough presentation, giving the client a practical action plan.

what our client gained

Non-compliance found across multiple markets

Global overview, local nuance

Complex compliance made simply actionable

Our audit uncovered missing recycling symbols in multiple countries, missing languages, and overlooked requirements.

From EU nuances to strict requirements in China, we helped the client understand where harmonisation was possible and where market-specific tweaks were essential.

By combining legal insight with hands-on research, we turned a compliance headache into a clear and manageable to-do list.

the impact

From reactive panic to proactive control

Our audit gave the client immediate clarity and a structured way forward.

While we can’t confirm which changes were implemented, they’re now equipped to reduce risk, prepare for packaging EPR obligations, and manage future compliance more confidently.
