Law360, New York (March 15, 2010) -- The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 is landmark legislation that addresses many aspects of product safety. As the CPSIA continues to be phased in, businesses involved in the manufacture or import of consumer products are working to ensure that they are, and will remain, in compliance with its provisions.
Smaller businesses and businesses that manufacture or import relatively low volumes of consumer goods often face particular challenges making sure that they are in compliance with the CPSIA.
