📢 Public Consultation Now Open: Draft RC2D Standard
Global GreenTag International is inviting manufacturers, industry associations, procurement professionals, specifiers, government agencies, researchers and other interested stakeholders to participate in a 30-day public consultation on the draft RC2D (Recycled Content and Circularity Declaration) Standard—a new science-based framework designed to strengthen confidence in recycled content claims and support the transition to a circular economy.
Developed in response to growing demand for greater transparency and integrity around recycled content claims, the draft RC2D Standard provides a science-based, transparent and independently verifiable framework for assessing and substantiating recycled content claims across manufactured products.
The Standard is intended to support manufacturers, auditors, certification bodies, procurement professionals, specifiers, government agencies, researchers and other organisations seeking to strengthen confidence in recycled content claims and contribute to measurable circular economy outcomes.
The Standard specifies:
• Definitions and classifications of recycled content.
• Acceptable chain of custody models, including segregation and mass balance approaches.
• Quantification methodologies.
• Evidence and documentation requirements.
• Labelling and communication protocols.
Public consultation is an essential part of developing a robust Standard. We encourage all interested stakeholders to review the draft and contribute their expertise to ensure the framework is practical, technically sound and responsive to industry needs.
📅 Consultation period: 7 July – 7 August 2026
