Many businesses find themselves in need of product destruction services. While this concept seems easy enough, there are many legal obstacles involved to ensure that the product gets destroyed safely and appropriately. Thus, it’s essential to choose a certified product destruction company like Destruction Central.

Here, we will look into some of the different types of products that need to be destroyed and explain which service you would need in each case. 

These will include recalled products, defective products, counterfeit products, and overstock products.

What to Do if My Product Is Unsafe?

If any of your products are deemed unsafe for customers, it’s essential to completely remove all compromised stock from the supply chain and to ensure none of it is being resold. Failure to do so can severely damage your reputation for quality and even lead to a devastating lawsuit. 

Most commonly, this occurs due to production error, disease, or bacteria outbreak in food production. For your peace of mind, we offer a certificate which assures you that none of the unsafe products will reach the market again.

What If My Product Doesn’t Work as Intended?

Sometimes customers return their products because of defects. This can happen either through an error on the production line or if the product is still under warranty and broken through regular use. 

Understandably, companies rarely want to keep the defective product, but it is crucial to ensure that it is handled appropriately. If anyone resells the product on the grey market, this can damage your reputation as a quality producer.

How to Handle Counterfeit Goods?

Many well-known companies have become victims of counterfeiting: goods being sold using a brand name without permission. It’s estimated that worldwide business losses due to counterfeiting exceed 300 billion dollars.

There are government regulations regarding the handling of counterfeit goods. They need to be either dismantled or broken down. Here at Destruction Central, we follow best practices and recycle materials as much as possible.

What if I Can’t Sell All My Products?

Sometimes businesses produce too much stock that they can’t sell. There can be a variety of reasons for this, including technological issues, incorrect market predictions, or supply chain issues. 

We call this issue overstock, and it usually requires the use of product destruction services. It’s particularly important for luxury goods, as increasing availability can damage perceptions of exclusivity and hurt the brand’s reputation as a luxury retailer.
