We are delighted to be hosting a global products law webinar on Tuesday 22 November 2022.

This interactive discussion will provide a multifaceted review of the ‘right to repair’, a broad concept which provides rights to consumers to repair or upgrade products they have purchased for an extended period, with a view to saving costs and facilitating the development of the circular economy.

Kennedys’ international product safety and liability partner Sarah Jane-Dobson will be joined by Beko's head of sustainability and quality in UK and Ireland Steve Clarke, who will consider:

  • EU and UK initiatives and legislation that encompass the ‘right to repair’, including country-specific variations.
  • The challenges faced by manufacturers in relation to the corollary obligations placed on them based on the rights of consumers.
  • The advantages and disadvantages for consumers.

The webinar is relevant to stakeholders across industry, including manufacturers, suppliers, importers and exporters, in-house counsel, insurers, claims managers and underwriters.
