EU product regulations are expanding across every category. CEvidence helps companies of any size understand what applies to their products, who is responsible, and what documentation holds up in practice.
Get in touch“CEvidence stands for See Evidence — transparent proof at every step of the compliance process.”
ESPR, PPWR, BWBR and other frameworks have introduced new obligations across almost every product category. Keeping up requires continuous monitoring, and most companies do not have that capacity in house.
Under current EU law, obligations extend to manufacturers, importers, distributors, and other economic operators. Inside companies, it is often unclear who must provide, review, and document which information, and at what stage.
Evidence scattered across email threads, shared drives and supplier portals is not the same as a structured, traceable compliance record. The difference matters when market surveillance authorities ask questions.
Four areas of work focus on making compliance clear, traceable, and manageable for companies that are building or strengthening their internal compliance capabilities.
ESPR, PPWR, and Digital Product Passports are reshaping regulatory expectations across many product categories. This section highlights what is driving that change and what it means in practice.

Thomas Frank is a graduate electrical engineer who has spent over 20 years working at the intersection of product testing, certification, and regulatory compliance. He started in the testing and inspection industry, managing laboratory operations, coordinating compliance projects for large retail clients across Europe and Asia, and running conformity assessments across a wide range of product categories.
CEvidence.Consulting was first established in 2016 as an independent advisory practice. After working in a full time regulatory role from 2019 to 2025, Thomas Frank reestablished CEvidence as an LLC in October 2025 with the same focus, a clearer structure, and significantly greater regulatory depth.
During that period, he also completed his certification as a CE Representative with TÜV Süd. The qualification covers conformity assessment procedures, technical documentation, product liability, and the practical implementation of CE processes inside companies. It was completed through a written examination and is refreshed on a regular basis.
From 2019 to 2025, he was part of a specialised regulatory affairs team at a leading European product compliance platform, where he monitored legislation before it entered into force, interpreted regulatory grey areas, structured compliance content for thousands of users across retail, trade and manufacturing, and contributed to the development of compliance data architectures.
With CEvidence.Consulting, Thomas Frank brings that combination of experience directly to companies that want to build or strengthen their internal compliance capabilities. The focus is on regulatory clarity, structured frameworks, and practical guidance that enable teams to work more effectively and make better informed decisions.
CEvidence covers a broad range of EU product legislation. The core focus lies on ESPR, PPWR, CE marking frameworks, and sustainability-related obligations for consumer and industrial products.
This overview reflects the core areas of current focus. Additional frameworks and product categories are covered on request — if your regulatory question is not listed here, get in touch.
CEvidence.Consulting operates independently of location. Advisory services are provided remotely and, where needed, on site across Europe. Thomas Frank is based in the Philippines and works internationally, with a primary focus on the EU market.
Short and structured summaries of relevant regulatory developments in EU product compliance. No commentary. No filler. Just what changed, when it applies, and who it affects.
View all updatesIf it is unclear whether CEvidence can support a specific product or supply chain situation, a short email is enough to find out. No long intake forms are required.
A short description of the product or product category, the relevant target markets, and the specific question or challenge is usually sufficient. This may concern a regulatory gap, a documentation issue, or responsibilities within the supply chain.
