The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certifies products with recycled content while also addressing environmental, chemical, and social practices in production.
What it covers
- Minimum recycled content (typically 20%).
- Environmental management, chemical restrictions, and social responsibility criteria.
- Full chain-of-custody verification.
Important details:
- More comprehensive than RCS due to its additional environmental and social requirements.
- Certification applies to each stage of the supply chain involved in the product.
