What is the recycled content in packaging?


Recycled content indicates what portion of the packaging material is made using recycled raw materials. For example, if a corrugated board manufacturer states that their supplied raw material contains 80% recycled fiber, we can use this information when evaluating the composition of packaging made from this material.

MAZUS does not determine the recycled content at its own discretion – in our declarations, we use data provided by raw material and component suppliers, backed by technical documentation.

Important: recycled content and packaging recyclability are two different things.
