GPSR - EU and N.Ireland

Selling Consumer Products to Europe and Northern Ireland Under the GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation)

Due to the NEW General Product Safety Regulation rules (GPSR) which came into effect on 13 December 2024, it will require us (and all GB businesses) selling into Northern Ireland and The EU to conduct detailed safety assessments, keeping documentation for each item and supplying evidentiary compliance paperwork for each product we sell. It will also require us to put in place a 'Responsible Person' based in either NI or the EU who will be accountable for compliance with the regulations.

Through our supplier network many of our products comply with the regulations. However, those that do not cannot be sold into EU/NI e.g. bolsters, zafus, belts, sandbags and eye pillows, until the UK Government clarifies the situation with regards to the Windsor Framework covering trade and the latest situation with GPSR to Northern Ireland.

We are a small family business and unfortunately the cost involved to implement these new regulations are too prohibitive and costly for us to take on. We will continue to sell ONLINE to the rest of UK including England, Wales, Scotland, Isle of Man and  Channel Islands. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

There is a large selection of Yoga Mats and Props that currently have the correct EU regulation attached to them, so if you are based in Northern Ireland, please email us for details of what we can supply and sell to you.
