Product Stewardship

GIST is a Centre of Excellence for chemical regulatory data management. Our aim is to help our customers to harness the power of data to become and remain compliant, to minimise their business risks and to drive forward innovation.

We take the position that while you need to comply with legislation and mitigate your business risk arising from chemicals regulations, you need not stop there. In fact, effective Product Stewardship and a drive towards more sustainable products is not only good practice but has real potential to provide companies with a competitive advantage in the marketplace. 

Product Stewardship underpins the breadth of our portfolio of services. The team works hand-in-hand with our regulatory, green chemistry, hazard communication and sustainability teams. However, the strong need for companies to manage regulatory data is what drives our focus.

At GIST we are experts at working across a breadth of industries – from aerospace to toys. We think with you so that we can find the most effective solutions for your business. We are an agile team that can help you plan responsibly and pivot quickly. We can help you to save time while giving you confidence in your continued compliance. We are the flexible extension of your regulatory team, and we use our expertise combined with automation to deliver efficient solutions to your regulatory needs.

Product Stewardship is the practice of making health, safety and environmental protection an integral part of the life cycle of products. It is underpinned by an acceptance of shared responsibility between those involved in the life cycle of products (including manufacturers, retailers and consumers) to ensure that these are managed in a way to reduce their impact on the environment and human health.
