GFT product safety assessment

We assess our products prior to marketing to identify any health and safety concerns and to ensure that they are compliant with product safety legislation in these markets.

Our product safety assessment starts with a review of the raw materials used to manufacture or formulate products. Key parts of our product safety assessment process are subject to internal and external quality review.

Product labeling

Information on hazards and risks, as well as safe handling advice, is communicated to users of products through the product`s assembly and application guide which is referred to on the product stickers.
We review the potential hazards and risks associated with our products and provide advice to customers on the measures necessary to prevent or minimize potential risks to human health or the environment.

Compliance and collaboration

We work closely with construction sector to advance scientific knowledge about the safe use of our products and we work with regulators to develop and enhance health and safety standards. Furthermore due to our vast knowledge and experience in this field, we also perform as formwork and scaffolding consultants.
