What measures facilitate the traceability of hazardous substances in PVC waste?

VinylPlus® seeks to monitor PVC waste streams and implement certification schemes as criteria for ensuring traceability of recycled materials. This stimulates demand for secondary raw materials while preserving a high level of environmental and health protection. The success of VinylPlus® over the past 20 years demonstrates that it is possible to ensure traceability of PVC waste throughout the recycling chain.

Recovinyl® is a founding member of EuCertPlast, which is a European wide certification programme for recyclers of plastic waste. This certification gives confidence to suppliers and customers that any input waste plastic and output produced in a certified facility will be treated according to the best practices.
