In North America, EPR is turning packaging into a state-by-state data, reporting, and fee management obligation, with producers in seven states — including Maine, Oregon, Colorado, and California — already facing registration, reporting, and financial requirements. Cosmetics is on the same trajectory. The EU's expanded fragrance-allergen labeling rules (Regulation (EU) 2023/1545) increase the number of allergens that must be declared on-label from 24 to 80, with new products required to comply by 31 July 2026 — regulation has become a continuous stream rather than a periodic event. Traditional compliance is breaking down. A single formulation change can affect packaging, labels, claims, supplier evidence, approvals, and reporting obligations at once — and when those records sit in spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected workflows, compliance becomes reactive. This is the challenge Trace One’s PLM platform is designed to address. "AI that works outside the product record is just another search tool. In regulated workflows, the value comes when AI can read formulation data, supplier evidence, approval history, and regulatory context together — and surface what needs attention before a compliance gap becomes a launch delay or an audit finding," said Federico Fontanella, Head of Strategic Innovation and Product Partners, Trace One. “Continuous compliance starts with a simple idea: the product record has to stay current as the product changes. Manufacturers cannot rely on disconnected spreadsheets, emails, supplier documents, and approval workflows when regulations keep changing. AI has the greatest value when it helps teams understand what changed, what is affected, what evidence supports the decision, and what action should happen next,” said Shreyas Shukla, Principal Research Director, Info-Tech Research Group. Key topics will include:  <ul type="disc"><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">why manufacturers need an always on compliance engine rather than periodic checks and manual reporting cycles</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">what continuous compliance looks like when product data, evidence, approvals, and workflows stay connected as change happens</li><li style="margin-bottom:8pt;">where AI can support regulatory interpretation, formulation validation, and next actions inside governed workflows </li></ul> The live session is designed for the regulatory, quality, R&amp;D, packaging, sustainability, PLM, and IT teams responsible for keeping product development and compliance aligned as requirements change.  Register for the live session:  <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=45MaDqCUhDyDdlcaWiZrlR95CdN0LgHXtOVPT-UKNWfsUG3vuLyt-heamgS8BduZccPgfvbuVWjWxYjgBRm8DHELB40JApdggLiXVF09sRqO3E-R3PUhez9rLFEQaOzt9EI5hOGMqH7Un7UKYLvvOtUr5ax7HOY5-KA934C-EzexUJRE0Czl1lQKVEN9R_sMTqFJz6GotyqJ-R8T3yYM3KGW_33Ym5Sre2cHcRluJ58mAMnvrGoq2CmupKJUALi3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Achieving Continuous Compliance with AI | Trace One &amp; Info-Tech Live Session">Achieving Continuous Compliance with AI | Trace One &amp; Info-Tech Live Session</a>  About Trace One With more than 30 years of industry expertise, Trace One partners with over 9,000 brands across food &amp; beverage, cosmetics, and chemicals to accelerate product development and turn regulatory complexity into a competitive advantage.
