New Standard For Circular Plastics Aims To Ensure Higher Quality
Cirplus, Europe’s largest digital procurement platform for recycled plastics, has developed a new standard for the use of recycled plastics.
Together with the IKK — Institute of Plastics and Circular Economy and the Kunststoff-Institut Luedenscheid, DIN SPEC 91481 sets out to improve the quality assurance of polyamide-based recyclates through the correction of previously insufficient data quality.
It also aims to provide clear guidelines for the classification and description of waste and recyclates, thus simplifying trade in recycled plastics.
The cooperation partners have also developed a concept for a digital product passport for recycled plastics and waste along the entire value chain, which can also be implemented at European level.
