Regulatory and compliance consulting services for UK & EU businesses
Connect 4 Compliance is a regulatory compliance consultancy with offices in Manchester and Tallinn, helping manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers meet UK and EU regulatory requirements. We support businesses across cosmetics, personal care, biocides, candles, air care products and small electrical appliances, alongside ISO 9001, BRCGS and SMETA. Our Estonian office allows us to act as EU Responsible Person directly, and cosmetic safety assessments are authored in house rather than subcontracted. Whether you are launching a new product, entering a new market or maintaining existing compliance, we help reduce regulatory risk, accelerate market access and keep your documentation aligned with current UK and EU legislation.
Who we are?
Connect 4 Compliance is a regulatory and compliance consultancy serving the UK and EU markets, with registered offices in Manchester, England and Tallinn, Estonia. The Estonian office allows us to act as EU Responsible Person directly, so clients are not routed through a third party to reach the EU market. We are a member of the CTPA (Cosmetic, Toiletry and Perfumery Association). Over the past 20+ years, we have helped more than 500+ manufacturers, importers, distributors and retailers successfully launch compliant products across the UK and EU while reducing regulatory delays and documentation issues.
