Our commitment to safe products
As a publisher, it is important to us to ensure the safety of our products for all consumers. In accordance with the EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR), we ensure that all our books and publications meet the highest safety standards.
Our measures for product safety
- Risk assessment and documentation
We carry out a thorough internal risk analysis for each of our products. We check whether potential risks exist and document this in technical documentation. This documentation is kept for at least 10 years and made available to the responsible market surveillance authorities on request.
- Safety-relevant properties and hazard analysis
Books without any additions or additional functions do not generally pose a risk to the health or safety of consumers. Therefore, according to Article 9(7) of the GPSR Regulation, such products are exempt from the obligation to include additional safety information. We also consider the risk to be low for books that were published before this regulation came into force and that do not have any special safety-relevant features. However, if you have any questions about a title, please do not hesitate to contact us.
- Transparency and traceability
We ensure that each book is provided with the necessary information for identification and traceability. This includes details such as ISBN, edition and print batch. This enables us to trace the production origin of a book at any time and to react quickly and effectively if necessary.
- Security information
According to Article 9(7) of the GPSR Regulation, no additional safety information is required for books that do not contain any additions or special functions. However, if a book contains features that require special precautions, these shall be clearly indicated.
