Navigate US & EU forced labor regulations and brand compliance requirements
Build complete, verifiable supply chain traceability for your business
Whatever the scenario, the core question is: can you prove your supply chain is clean?
"My buyer wants traceability documents, but I don't have them"
"CBP detained my shipment and wants evidence—what do I do?"
"I want to prepare before problems arise"
Not just a report—a complete traceability capability system
Why most companies struggle with supply chain compliance
Most companies only know their Tier 1 suppliers. Tier 2, 3, and beyond remain opaque. Raw materials may pass through multiple intermediaries before reaching you.
Purchase orders, production records, and shipping documents don't reconcile—quantities, dates, and batches mismatch. In 2024, 48% of detained shipments were ultimately denied entry.
CBP requires specific formats and content. Supplier declarations, origin certificates, and process documentation must meet particular standards—incomplete or incorrect submissions are rejected.
Complex products contain hundreds or thousands of components. Full traceability is impractical. Without a methodology to identify high-risk materials, resources are wasted on blind efforts.
Every product has a traceability chain—we help you map it out
Typical product: Solar modules
Solar is the most heavily enforced forced labor enforcement sector. ~35% of global polysilicon comes from Xinjiang. CBP scrutinizes any module potentially containing Xinjiang polysilicon, even if assembled in third countries. In FY2024, $510M of Vietnamese solar products were detained.
Typical product: Cotton T-shirt
Cotton is a statutory US forced labor law high-priority product. Xinjiang produces 85% of China's cotton, ~20% of global supply. In 2024, 771 apparel/textile shipments were detained, up 33.4% YoY.
Typical product: Laptop
Electronics leads all sectors with 2,173 detentions in 2024. Automotive/aerospace surged 1,580% YoY. Enforcement focus has expanded from consumer electronics to auto parts, drones, and industrial equipment.
Typical product: Tomato paste
Tomatoes are a statutory US forced labor law high-priority product. Xinjiang produces ~70% of China's tomatoes and is the world's second-largest tomato paste exporter. Processed foods containing tomato ingredients (pizza sauce, canned tomatoes, sauces) are all subject to scrutiny.
Typical product: EV battery pack
Batteries are an emerging enforcement priority. Automotive/aerospace detentions surged 1,580% in 2024, largely due to battery components. DHS has added aluminum, lithium, and cobalt to high-priority materials. EV battery enforcement expected to increase significantly in 2025.
