Because we don’t require a product’s full formulation to accurately classify it, our registration, classification, and compliance processes are quicker and easier than other solutions. Our self-service registration process registers and classifies products in a matter of minutes. Our bulk registration tools can register multiple UPCs quickly using publicly-available data, reducing the amount of information you need to provide. Once registered, products can be shared with other retailers meaning you only have to complete the registration process once.

Many consumer products are subject to federal, state, and local regulations. New regulations and exemptions are also regularly introduced. Registering your products with SmarterX ensures you are always compliant and can help you benefit from updates to regulations and laws. Additionally, product registration is often required as part of a retailer's broader item management and compliance process, as well as for validating ingredient-free claims and supporting certain sustainability and waste diversion programs.

All regulated consumer products and certain products required by your retailers’ compliance programs need to be registered. This includes formulated products (e.g. beauty and household products), electrical goods or products with electronic components, and products with regulated ingredients and chemistry (e.g. food supplements and alcohol). You may also need to register products to verify ingredient-free claims and support retailer waste diversion goals and sustainability programs.

We do not require a product’s full formulation. Instead, you will need to provide basic information like product name, UPC, and brand name—we’ll take it from there! Depending on the product type, you may also be asked for common documentation such as a Safety Data Sheet for formulated products or user manuals for electronics. If your product contains chemical ingredients, you will typically need to share the information on your product labeling including concentration ranges.

We connect hazardous and regulated consumer products to over 7,000 regulations for shipping, handling, storage, and safe disposal. Products are classified using DOT, RCRA, IATA, EPA, OSHA, and IMDG regulations, plus state-specific regulations and laws. Our team of regulatory experts works closely with HCPA, RILA, COSTHA, and ERCC, staying up-to-date on policy changes.
