Process of being certified;

  1. Identify the required scheme

    (eg: Organic or recycled) Talk to the customer (buyer, brand, or retailer) and identify their specific requirements;
    Example scenario: the buyer may require products with recycled polyester and they might simply inform merchandisers, a recycled program is required.

  2. Select the exact program(s).

    Example scenario: certain products to be produced with 10% recycled materials and certain products with 50% recycled materials + REACH compliant chemical inputs;
    Concern: RCS is the only program that able to claim with 10% recycled materials and the chemical compliance of ‘REACH’ is covered by GRS. So, the facility needs to be certified for both GRS and RCS.
