New certification sets best practices for chemical recyclers
Fewer than 20 chemical recycling facilities operate worldwide, and dozens more are planned. Trellis looks at the new Certification Standard for Responsible Chemical Recycling (SCS-004), built with input from recyclers, brands and NGOs. SCS Global Services now certifies facilities to the standard, which requires site-level disclosure of permits and emissions.
