Measure of product warranty and consumer protection in the European single market

Abstract

The expansion of markets, as a consequence of the so-called global economy, determines economic systems more complex and requires more innovative strategies for the subsistence of businesses and consumer protection. For the European Union the advantages of a single market are evident for both companies, which may have a wider market, and for consumers who may count on a wide range of commodities. We underline that consumers need more information tools to make choices more conscious. In this context it is worthwhile to note some effects arising from the transformation process outlined and examine the actions that EU has adopted to promote the "real" free movement of commodities and to protect the consumer. The resistance encountered in several Countries and the complex method adopted to eliminate technical barriers has caused several difficulties. The aim of this study is to illustrate the role of tools available for consumer protection and of the knowledge concerning commodities to achieve more transparent relationships between producers and consumers.
