Regulatory and customs support

The rules for importing fasteners into Europe change often. We keep track of them for you: for every shipment from our production plants in Asia we collect, check and provide the documentation required by EU regulations and customs, in one well-organised package.

How we work

We take care of the paperwork, you focus on your market

We already know what is needed

For every order the required documents are identified automatically, based on the product and its customs code.

We check before sending

Every document is checked by us before it reaches you.

One package per order

You receive the full documentation of the shipment, complete and in order, always in the same format.

Declarations always valid

Long-term declarations are kept up to date with their expiry dates.

One step ahead of new rules

We follow how the rules evolve (PPWR, definitive CBAM, the new Construction Products Regulation 2024/3110, the new Machinery Regulation 2023/1230) and update the requirements in good time.
