Example 2. A company imports a candleholder. After placing it on the market, the importer identifies that the screws holding the candle can come loose, which may result in the candle falling on the floor, potentially causing a fire or burns. In this scenario, the company must inform the manufacturer of the risk detected in relation to the product and check whether the manufacturer takes the necessary corrective measures, informs the consumers thereof and informs the market surveillance authorities thereof through the Safety Business Gateway. If the manufacturer fails to take effective corrective measures, the importer must take the appropriate corrective measure.
