Dublin, Jan. 23, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Product Stewardship Market by Type (Solutions, Services (Business Consulting and Advisory Services, Audit, Assessment, and Regulatory Compliance Services, Deployment and Implementation Services)), Organization Size, Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to the Product Stewardship Institute (PSI), product stewardship is the act of minimizing the health, safety, environmental, and social impacts of a product and its packaging throughout all lifecycle stages, while also maximizing economic benefits. The manufacturer, or producer, of the product, has the highest ability to minimize adverse impacts, but other stakeholders, such as suppliers, retailers, and consumers, also play a role. Stewardship can be either voluntary or required by law.

Product stewardship considers the entire product lifecycle and is aimed at reducing the risk at each level of every phase. Product stewardship is majorly intended for chemical products and is used across the product life cycle, from the procurement of raw materials to product manufacturing, designing, packaging, transport, usage and to eventual disposal. Product stewardship functions efficiently in a shared responsibility model that requires close coordination among everyone involved in each aspect of the product's lifecycle.

Product stewardship has evolved from product safety and product compliance to corporate responsibility wherein, organizations are increasingly focusing on achieving operational eco-efficiency and sustainable product innovation. Hence, regulatory compliance, human & environmental safety, and sustainability assessments have become an integral part of new product design. Product stewardship is also used to meet the demands of consumers for greener products to enhance their brand reputation.

Product stewardship focuses on adherence to multiple regulations that directly or indirectly scrutinize the chemical industry. Some of these regulations include Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), The Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), The European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR), Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP), Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP), Prior Informed Consent (PIC), The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDC).
