Our focus: The sustainability of your products and supply chains.
More than just a trend: The European Green Deal is a comprehensive package of measures aimed at improving the EU’s eco-balance and achieving economic climate neutrality by 2050. In this context, the EU has enacted a number of measures aimed at both the sustainability of products and global supply chains, which are increasingly coming under the scrutiny of market surveillance authorities.
Our competence team supports you in implementing these challenging tasks: from the identification of product-related sustainability requirements, through questions of extended product responsibility, to the sustainable design of your company and your global supply chains.
Our sustainable products & supply chains team: competent companion, reliable partner.
Sustainable products
Just like the fulfilment of technical and safety-related requirements, sustainable product design is a legal prerequisite for the marketability of products and thus a key criterion for business success. From the identification of product-related sustainability requirements and the extraction of suitable raw materials, through the duration of anticipated use to the recycling of a product at the end of its life cycle, sustainability requirements must not only be complied with, but also communicated transparently via digital media such as the Digital Product Passport (DPP).
From environmental protection to eco-design, from information procurement to the Digital Product Passport: our sustainable products & supply chains team supports you with legal advice that is geared to holistic sustainability management.

Sustainable supply chains
National and European legal acts require a systemic approach to sustainability risk management or presuppose a risk management system. In order to comply with legal obligations, strategic measures must be implemented both within the company itself and in the relationship with suppliers – the procurement and processing of information, cooperation in the supply chain, complaint management and reporting to authorities and stakeholders are just some of them. Non-compliance with due diligence obligations is strictly and measurably sanctioned and increases the corporate liability risk.
Whether human rights, environmental and climate protection in manufacturing and distribution or the implementation of corporate due diligence in contract design and reporting: our sustainable products & supply chains competence team supports you with a holistic range of advisory services that focus on your supply chains.
