Compliance Scheme benefits for manufacturers

The scheme offers tailored advice in relation to the FFFSR. Certified Companies who meet the requirements of the scheme can use this as evidence of due diligence in the event that local enforcement bodies interpret the Regulations differently.

Further benefits manufacturers include:

• Increase in retailer and consumer confidence that as a Certified Company within the scheme, you have the necessary due diligence systems in place to sufficiently address the requirements of the Regulations.
• Offers you credibility as your organisation has chosen to become a Certified Company of an approved scheme, demonstrating your commitment to compliance.

The scheme is open to manufacturers, retailers and upholsterers of any size. Upholstered products covered include chairs, sofas, stools, floor and scatter cushions, materials and upholstery itself which may be sold separately, or used for re-covering.
