The GRS is an international, voluntary, full-product standard
that sets requirements for third-party certification of recycled
content, chain of custody, social and environmental practices,
and chemical restrictions.
The goal of the GRS is to increase the use of Recycled materials in products and reduce or eliminate the
harm caused by its production.
The Global Recycled Standard is intended for use with any product that contains
at least 20% recycled material.
The Recycled Claim Standard verifies the presence and amount of recycled material in a final product.
This happens through input and chain-of-custody verification from a third party.
The Recycled Claim Standard certification has two product labels:
The Recycled Blended Claim Standard is intended for use with any product that
contains at least 5% recycled material.
There are no other restrictions on the remaining content.
The Recycled 100 Claim Standard guarantees that the product contains
95-100% recycled content.
There are no other restrictions on the remaining content.
