Is One Certificate Enough for PPWR?

As the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) moves from policy to enforcement, the conversation among European converters has shifted.
It is no longer just about whether you can source recycled material. It is about whether you can prove its origin, its content, and its compliance—batch after batch.
At Remei Polymer, we believe that a single certificate is no longer enough to support a Declaration of Conformity (DoC). You need a traceable chain. Here is how we build ours.
1. GRS: Verifying the Content

Issued by SGS, our Global Recycled Standard (GRS V4.0) certification verifies our recycled content claims. It confirms the 100% post-consumer input of our PE-HD and PP materials, covering the extrusion and mechanical recycling processes.
This is the foundation. It proves the content and supports the issuance of Transaction Certificates (TC) for your shipments.
2.RecyClass: Verifying the Process

Issued by Control Union, our RecyClass Recycling Process Certificate verifies the actual recycling process. It confirms compliance with EN 15343:2007—the standard directly referenced by PPWR for calculating recycled content.
With a segregated chain of custody and Traceability Level 2, it proves the process and ensures our RHDPE and RPP pellets meet stringent European traceability requirements.
Why Both Matter

A certification of content without a certification of process leaves a gap in your compliance documentation.
GRS proves the content. RecyClass proves the process. Together, they provide the verifiable evidence needed to support your PPWR documentation and defend your DoC.
Beyond the Certificates: The Documents You Actually Need
Certificates on a wall don’t clear customs or satisfy auditors. Documents do. To support our partners directly, we provide a complete verification pack:
GRS & RecyClass certificates
TDS & Certificate of Origin (CO)
Batch-level COA (Certificate of Analysis)
PPWR / Annex VIII-aligned DoC Support
