SGS Launches EN 15343 Certification – Traceability of Plastics Recycling and Recycled Plastic Content

Following ENAC accreditation in Spain, SGS provides EN 15343 certification globally – a key factor in regulatory compliance and obtaining tax reductions on non-reusable plastic packaging.

Sustainable plastic recycling is crucial to reducing waste, conserving resources and promoting economic growth. Compliance with EN 15343, the European standard for plastics recycling traceability and recycled content, ensures that plastic manufacturers and packagers meet stringent traceability and recycling requirements. This is often a key factor in regulatory compliance and can be essential for obtaining tax reductions on non-reusable plastic packaging.

Following the accreditation by the National Accreditation Entity (ENAC) in Spain, we are delighted to issue EN 15343 certification globally.
