The RecyClass certification scheme for Recycled Plastic (Traceability) was introduced throughout Europe in 2019 to verify the traceability of the recycled content from the recycling plant to the converter to the semi-finished or finished product, based on the EuCertPlast / RecyClass Process certification.

One requirement for the certification body is accreditation according to DIN/EN 17065. We work together with the accredited certification body EcoGrant for both the RecyClass Recycling Process and the RecyClass Recycled Plastic certification scheme. Both certification schemes offer stakeholders in the plastics value chain the opportunity to demonstrate the quality of their recycling processes and to show transparency and traceability in the verified use of recycled plastics.

Thus, the certificates issued in this way can be used, among other things, for the recognition of the recycled content in connection with the Spanish plastic tax for the certification of recycled plastics according to UNE EN 15343:2008. After the on-site inspection, the results of the audit are summarised in the web-based online tool from RecyClass. Afterwards, a test report is generated via the online tool and the certificate is issued, stating the origin of the recyclate and the percentage of post- and pre-consumer content in the recyclate, semi-finished or finished product.

If you are interested in certification according to the RecyClass Recycling Process or the RecyClass Recycled Plastic Certification Scheme, please do not hesitate to contact us.
