Solutions · Product compliance

Stop maintaining product compliance by hand.

Zilch collects, reads and maintains the safety documents, bills of materials and declarations behind every product you sell. Missing and expired paperwork is chased for you, and the credentials that come out of it are worth selling on.

The problem

Right now, every product in your catalogue looks the same.

A name, an image, a price. Nothing that tells a customer why one option is better made, better certified or lower impact than the one next to it — so they pick on price. The information that would justify the better product exists, it just isn’t in front of them.

The automation

Every mandatory document, handled for you.

Zilch does the collecting, reading, checking and chasing. Your team reviews and signs off instead of building everything from scratch.

  • Safety documents, kept current

    Safety data sheets and test reports are matched to the right product and checked against what it needs. Missing or expired ones become a task, not a surprise.

  • Bills of materials, created for you

    Zilch builds the bill of materials from the product itself — components, materials and weights — without waiting on a supplier to send one.

  • Declarations of conformity, generated

    Conformity statements are drafted against the standards that apply, ready for you to review and sign rather than write from scratch.

  • Supplier details redacted

    Manufacturer names, pricing and origin detail are blacked out automatically before anything leaves your business. Add your own rules for the rest.

  • Documents chased automatically

    What can only come from a supplier is requested, tracked and escalated until it arrives. You stop writing the follow-up emails.

  • Catalogue-wide reporting

    See completeness by supplier, category or customer, and export the evidence behind any order or tender.

Documents and standards covered

  • Safety data sheets
  • Declaration of conformity
  • Product test reports
  • Bill of materials
  • Materials declarations
  • ISO 14067 product carbon
  • APCO packaging data

Then the catalogue becomes worth more

Once the documents are in order, the numbers behind them are worth selling on. The same profile that satisfies a buyer’s compliance team gives your sales team something to trade up with.

  • Product A vs product B

    Show the customer the difference.

    Put two products side by side with the numbers behind them: footprint, recycled content, materials, certifications and end of life. When the better option is 30% lower impact and certified, the conversation stops being about unit price.

  • Product reports

    Everything about a product on one page.

    Footprint, bill of materials, safety data sheet, decoration options, manuals and certifications, combined into a single one-pager in your branding. Attach it to a quote, a tender response or a product page.

    • Carbon footprint
    • Bill of materials
    • Safety data sheet
    • Decoration options
    • Manuals
  • Credentials

    Put the certifications where the customer can see them.

    FSC, recycled content, GRS, OEKO-TEX and the rest are collected, verified against the document behind them and shown on the product — so a credential you already paid for actually helps you win the order.

How it works

From a product list to paperwork that maintains itself.

  1. Bring in the catalogue.

    Upload a CSV, connect a supplier feed, or let Zilch scan your website. Products, variants and any documents you already hold come in together.

  2. Zilch reads every document.

    Each one is read, matched to the right product and checked against what that product needs. Anything missing or expired becomes a task.

  3. The numbers get calculated.

    Footprint, materials, recycled content and packaging are modelled from the product itself, with no supplier involvement — so every product has something to compare on.

  4. It stays current on its own.

    Expiries, supersessions and new products are picked up as they happen. One-pagers, comparisons and tender answers are generated from whatever is current.

By hand

  • Someone spends their week on product paperwork
  • Documents expire without anyone noticing
  • You find out what’s missing when a buyer asks
  • Your manufacturer’s name goes out with the PDF
  • Every request rebuilt from scratch
