CEN/TC 261/SC 4/WG 10 - Design for recycling for plastic packaging products

This document covers the design of PET bottles with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting, sorting, and recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than PET are also covered by this standard as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document covers the design of EPS rigid packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting, sorting, and recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than PS are also covered by this document as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document covers the design of PE and PP rigid packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting, sorting, and recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than PE and PP are also covered by this standard as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document provides requirements for the evaluation process for PET Bottles with
respect to compatibility of the design with recycling processes.
Packaging components and ancillary elements made of other materials than PET are also covered by this document as they need to be evaluated for compatibility with the recycling processes.

This document covers the design of PET rigid packaging (except bottles) with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting, sorting, and recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than PET are also covered by this standard as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document is an input for a standard on the recyclability evaluation process of plastic packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting and sorting processes for the plastic used.
This document covers any household plastic packaging where the main body is made of PET, PE, PP or PS material.

This document covers the design of PS and XPS rigid packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with the collecting, sorting, and recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than PS are also covered by this document as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document covers the design of PE and PP flexible packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with recycling processes available for PE and PP packaging.
Packaging constituents and components used in/on PE and PP flexible packaging but made of materials other than PE and PP are also covered by this document as these need to be evaluated for compatibility with PE and PP mechanical recycling processes.

This document covers recyclability evaluation process guidance for PS and XPS packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with recycling processes for the polymers used.

This document covers the design of EPS packaging with respect to compatibility of the design with recycling processes.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of other materials than EPS are also covered by this document as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with polymer recycling.

This document provides a process that manages the identification of the level of compatibility of plastic packaging features with collection, sorting and recycling, describing the level of compatibility as fully, limited, and not recyclable.
This standard covers any plastic packaging where the main body is made of plastic material. It targets to harmonize the design for recycling standard approach for each resin.
