Need to verify recycled content claims for your products? ECG delivers third-party verification aligned with ISO standards and major global frameworks, helping you substantiate sustainability claims and meet buyer and regulatory requirements.
What Is Recycled Content Verification?
Recycled Content Verification confirms the percentage of recycled material—whether post-consumer or post-industrial—in your products. Verification ensures transparency, supports eco-labeling, and meets procurement and ESG requirements across industries.
Why It Matters
Retailers, regulators, and sustainability-conscious buyers increasingly demand proof of recycled content. Verified claims help your business avoid greenwashing, build trust, and access eco-sensitive markets. Many government and corporate procurement programs now require third-party validation as a condition for eligibility. Accurate verification also supports compliance with international labeling schemes and helps differentiate your products in competitive sectors like packaging, apparel, and consumer goods.
