I've been working on a DPP document/tool for small businesses to enable sustainable fashion brands to prepare for the EU DPP regulations that doesn't cost an arm and a leg for small businesses. While creating it, I noticed many UK fashion brands (and other types of businesses) posting about stopping all sales to the EU after the 13th of December 2024, due to the new General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR).
It's a complete mind field and during my research, I contacted companies that are offering solutions for this, but they are prohibitively expensive for small businesses. The original idea was to write an article on it for my online magazine, but being a supporter of small, sustainable businesses, I ended up making a template.
The template could also be used for other industries to comply with regulations as well.
The design is not fancy (at this stage) and is bare bones, only including the information you need to comply. With instructions and links for further information.
Let me know if you would like to know more about it. It's so sad to see so many sustainable fashion brands cutting a huge chunk of their market revenue due to not being able to understand or have the time and capacity to understand the new regulations.
Are you a sustainable brand that is having trouble navigating the new regulations? Would love to hear your feedback and what you're doing to combat the situation.
