Don't Let GPSR Block Your Holiday Sales to Europe!
Starting December 13, 2024, every non-food product sold across the EU on Amazon, Shopify, eBay, or any retailer must comply with the new General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR). It applies whether you're selling electronics, textiles, toys, furniture, FMCG, or almost any consumer product you can think of.
Miss the deadline? Your products come down. No tenders. No market access. No sales.
But here's the good news: Fluxy.One GPSR Shield handles the complexity while you focus on selling.
What GPSR Demands (and Why It Matters)
Under GPSR, every product must:
- Have a Responsible Person (RP) based in the EU—a legal contact for regulators
- Include clear safety information and instructions in local EU languages
- Display proper labeling including contact details, product identifiers, and warnings
- Be backed by technical documentation proving safety (kept for 10+ years)
- Have traceability data so regulators can track it
The regulation isn't bureaucratic theater—it's genuine consumer protection. But for manufacturers outside the EU or growing e-commerce teams, it's a compliance mountain.
That's where we come in.
✓ We Become Your EU Responsible Person
Fluxy.One acts as your legally compliant Responsible Person. We're your official EU contact, registered and ready to field regulator inquiries. This service is available only to companies that have passed KYB (Know Your Business) verification and have a documented business history—ensuring we work only with serious operators.
What we handle:
- Serve as the legal contact point for EU market surveillance authorities
- Respond to regulatory inquiries on your behalf
- Manage all compliance-related communications
✓ We Generate Your Complete Compliance Documentation
We don't just create one document—we build your entire GPSR technical file, which includes:
Mandatory documents we prepare:
- Declaration of Conformity – Your formal statement that the product meets EU safety standards
- Risk Assessment & Technical File – A detailed analysis of product hazards, how you've eliminated or mitigated them, and proof (test reports, certifications)
- Instructions for Use (IFUs) – Clear, step-by-step guidance in all required EU languages (27+)
- Safety Labels & Warnings – Formatted for your product category (with CE marking where applicable)
- Bill of Materials (BOM) – Complete product composition
- Traceability Information – Manufacturer, importer, distributor contacts
- Test Reports & Certifications – Relevant standards compliance (EN 71 for toys, EN 62368 for electronics, RoHS, etc.)
- Proof of Responsible Person Appointment – Your official GPSR compliance certificate
All documents are print-ready and available in all EU languages.
✓ We Securely Store Everything for 10+ Years
Your technical documentation must be kept accessible for 10 years after product launch – that's the law. We maintain a secure, encrypted repository in EU data centers, fully GDPR compliant. If regulators request your files, they're instantly available. No scrambling. No missing records.
✓ We Automate Content Translation
Your safety instructions don't just need to exist—they need to be in the language of every EU market where your product sells. We automatically translate all compliance content into 24+ EU languages, ensuring accessibility for regulators, retailers, and consumers.
✓ We Help You Print & Apply New Labels—Without the Labor
Here's what we do: Generate print-ready PDF files for all your labels and safety instructions, formatted for standard label stock and industry specifications.
Here's what we don't do: We don't physically re-label products on your warehouse shelves.
Here's what we offer instead: As a Fluxy client, you gain access to exclusive discounts and preferred rates with our network of certified EU printing partners. You can either:
- Use their services to print and apply labels to existing stock in FBA, 3PL, or your warehouse
- Handle printing in-house and apply labels yourself
- Coordinate with your 3PL directly using our partner network
This flexibility lets you manage re-labeling efficiently without hidden costs or surprises.

Critical Distinction: What Fluxy.One Doesn't Do
Fluxy.One does NOT physically re-label inventory on your shelves.
We understand this is a common question. Here's the reality:
- We generate all the legally compliant label files you need
- We provide access to certified printing partners with special pricing
- You (or your logistics partner) handle the physical application
This separation keeps costs transparent and gives you control over the process. Whether you work with our partners or your own print vendor, you're equipped with professional-grade files and expert guidance.
Your GPSR Compliance Checklist: 7 Steps to Selling Freely in Europe
Follow this roadmap to launch legally compliant products across the EU, including Amazon, Shopify, eBay, and traditional retailers.
Step 1: Verify Your Product Scope
What to do: Confirm your product isn't exempt from GPSR.
GPSR applies to: Electronics, toys, textiles, furniture, home goods, sporting equipment, cosmetics containers, FMCG (packaged goods), apparel, and 90% of consumer products.

What to do: Provide business documentation proving your company's legitimacy.
Required: Company registration, tax ID, business history, beneficial ownership details, and proof of operational activity (recent invoices, contracts, or banking records).
