Buffalo, NY – March 16, 2010:  Bureau Veritas Consumer Products Services (BVCPS) has released an industry-first series of regulatory manuals, entitled the US Compliance Insider 2010.  The books provide comprehensive coverage of US state and federal requirements in multiple volumes, with each representing one of four product lines: toys and juvenile products; apparel and textiles; electrical and electronics; and hardgoods. Available as an electronic book, the Insider is a fully-searchable reference source designed to guide a user through the complex maze of regulatory compliance laws and regulations.

Bureau Veritas, a worldwide quality assurance provider for the consumer product and retail market, is the technical knowledge leader in regulatory compliance. The manual content was compiled and summarized by key technical and information management professionals within BVCPS.  Joe Skulski, BVCPS Director of New Product Development, stated,  “Bureau Veritas is proud to publish the Insider for the consumer products industry.  It provides the user with streamlined regulatory access and a clearer understanding of complicated requirements.”

The Insider series packages comprehensive coverage of consumer product requirements for the United States.  The user can either purchase the four-volume set, or select individual product line volumes representing their areas of interest.   The Insider saves time, making it easy to identify applicable product requirements through key-word searching and a comprehensive index.   Each entry, conveniently arranged by government agency, offers a summary of the act or regulation’s intent and scope, and provides additional in-depth information such as testing and labeling requirements.

The manual streamlines the research process and is further enhanced by specialized features such as comparative customized charts, product case studies and a glossary.
