International Consumer Product Health & Safety Organization Annual Symposium

This month, Reese's Purpose was honored to participate in the 2026 Annual Symposium hosted by the International Consumer Product Health and Safety Organization (ICPHSO).

ICPHSO brings together global leaders in product safety, including regulators, manufacturers, retailers, medical professionals, injury prevention experts, and advocates, all focused on one goal: reducing preventable injuries and deaths.

Sitting on that stage, looking out at a room filled with the people who shape product standards and policy worldwide, was a powerful reminder of why this work matters. Product safety is not accidental. It is built through data, legislation, design, and accountability.

Throughout the week, conversations centered on emerging hazards, recall effectiveness, regulatory enforcement, and global collaboration. These discussions directly impact the products that enter our homes and the standards companies are required to meet.

Reese's Purpose continues to ensure that families are represented in those rooms. We advocate for stronger reporting, safer battery design, clearer warning labels, and meaningful enforcement of laws like Reese's Law.

The message is clear: prevention is possible when industry, regulators, and advocates work together.

We are proud to be part of shaping that future.

Suspect a child has swallowed a button battery?


Time matters. A button battery lodged in a child's esophagus can cause serious tissue damage in two hours. Do not wait for symptoms. Call the National Battery Ingestion Hotline immediately, and go to a hospital emergency department that has both an operating room and X-ray capability.
