Items made from recycled materials

Recycled items save valuable raw materials. This refers to items produced from recycled material. Recycled items may qualify for a label if they are made from at least 50% recycled material.

Sustainability recycled

Criteria

To save valuable raw materials and prevent waste, it's important that we reuse materials. This helps us transition to a circular economy. Items in this category contain reused materials, such as items made from recycled material.

If you want an item to be labeled based on a characteristic (e.g., >50% recycled material) instead of a certification, please provide verification from the item's manufacturer, proving the origin and percentage of the material.

Certification or characteristic

We require verification by one of the specified labels or verification from the item's manufacturer, proving the origin and percentage of the recycled material when no certification is available.

Recyclable items are excluded (as their degree of sustainability is strongly influenced by customer behavior and the existence of a return process).

Labels for multiple themes

Do you want to apply for labels across multiple themes? You can do this all in one form. There's no need to fill out a separate form for each theme.
