Certificering van gerecycled materiaal voor elektrische en elektronische apparatuur

Leiderschap tonen in het gebruik van gerecyclede materialen

This certification program raises the bar for recycled content claims related to a wide range of consumer electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) in Latin America. It supports brands and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) who are part of the circular economy, providing transparency around the total recycled content in their products. Eligible products include heating and portable A/C appliances, coffee machines, gaming devices, computer and internet equipment, mobile devices, and much more. Certificate holders in Latin America can also use this certification to sell products through retailers such as Amazon under its Climate Pledge Friendly program. 

Developed through a multi-stakeholder process, the EEE requirements are built into a comprehensive, sector-specific addition (Annex A) to the widely recognized SCS-103 Recycled Content Standard for consumer and business products, the recycled content standard of choice for industries across the economy. Third-party certification increases consumer confidence, satisfies customer specifications, and reinforces manufacturers' efforts to increase recycled material use. It also helps companies promote continuous improvement in the use of recycled materials, as well as innovation in material recycling processes to minimize waste to landfills.
