Product Liability Claims
Under South African law, manufacturers, retailers, distributors and suppliers can all be held liable for damages caused by defective or hazardous products.
Complexities of product liability claims
Product liability claims are often complex, and each claim is unique. An exhaustive investigation into the origin of a product and of its supply chain may be required just to identify the correct defendant for a product liability claim.
It may also be necessary to conduct product testing to prove that a product failed to meet the required standards defined by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS), and that this resulted in harm.
