FAQs

On the label, is it possible to state the presence of recycled plastic as a claim? Do I necessarily have to state the component made of recycled plastic, e.g., “bottle with recycled plastic body, cap and label made of virgin plastic”? In particular, if it is a bottle, should I specify in the claim that the component made from recycled plastic is only the body?

Yes, the claim on recycled material content should always be specified and qualified (indicating which object the claim refers to e.g., product, component, packaging, packaging component) and the percentage of recycled material.
