The independent testing and certification takes into account all relevant standards and norms and ensures the highest degree of result validity and credibility. Now, for the first time, the certification has been awarded to Plukon, one of Europe\u2019s largest suppliers of fresh chicken meat and poultry convenience products.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plukon was the first company to complete the innovative and demanding testing and certification process. The overall packaging \u201cFolding carton (192*155*55mm) with inliner\u201d achieved the highest rating level with excellent recyclability (class 1, 95\u2013100% [DE, AT], excellent recyclability). \u201cWe welcome the new T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard and are very pleased that we are among the pioneers in this field,\u201d says Ulrike R\u00fccker, spokeswoman for the Plukon Group in Germany, about the successful completion of the testing and certification process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Kombi\">Innovative analysis takes into account practical recyclability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the joint and, above all, independent certification, the cooperation partners T\u00dcV S\u00dcD and RecycleMe combine digital analysis methods with established audit processes. Exact material testing, the inclusion of all relevant standards and norms as well as the use of digital technology enable a more comprehensive analysis for maximum reliability and transparency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTesting and certification according to the new T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard takes into account regional collection and recycling structures as well as the sorting capability of packaging,\u201d explains Dr. Robert Hermann, Head of the Green Energy &amp; Sustainability Business Unit at T\u00dcV S\u00dcD in Austria, who initiated the new testing and certification procedure with his team in partnership with RecycleMe. \u201cWith this holistic practical focus, the concrete potential of the recyclability of packaging is shown objectively and transparently.\u201d According to Dr. Hermann, real improvements only arise when recyclable materials can be reintegrated into the economic cycle not only theoretically, but also practically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Techno\">State-of-the-art digital technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A core element of the T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard \u201cRecyclability of packaging\u201d is the creation of a \u201cdigital twin\u201d of the packaging by the experts from RecycleMe. Based on documentation of materials, weights and dimensions, a digital analysis of the respective packaging is carried out, considering all relevant influencing factors for the evaluation of recyclability. A major advantage of digital technology is that optimization and solution potentials with regard to the recyclability of packaging can already be demonstrated during the evaluation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith our method, we offer companies a transparent and holistic analysis and evaluation of their packaging. In addition, we can also show where packaging has potential for optimization and provide the necessary recommendations for action,\u201d explains Sabrina Goebel, Managing Director of RecycleMe GmbH. \u201cThe cooperation with the independent, neutral institution T\u00dcV S\u00dcD ultimately enables a unique certification according to the highest standard, which makes a good performance in terms of recyclability also recognizable for consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Sicherheit\">Reliable data for further improvements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uniform standards and norms enable an objective and transparent measurement of the recyclability of packaging as a basis for optimization. In addition to the T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard \u201cRecyclability of packaging\u201d, the independent testing and certification process at Plukon also included conformity with the standards \u201cMinimum standard for the assessment of the recyclability of packaging subject to system participation, status (31.08.2021)\u201d, \u201cDIN EN 13430; Packaging \u2013 Requirements for packaging for recycling\u201d and \u201cISO 15270; Plastics \u2013 Guidelines for the recovery and recycling of plastics waste\u201d reviewed and confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The testing and certification procedure according to T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard \u201cRecyclability of packaging\u201d can be applied to packaging made of plastic, paper, cardboard, glass, aluminium, ferrous metals, wood and composites. Depending on the product, it usually takes between one and three months. After successful completion, the certificate is valid for three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Image: \u00a9Plukon, \u00a9T\u00dcV S\u00dcD, \u00a9RecycleMe<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d25b6741 alignfull\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-da305088\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-134651e7 gb-headline-text\">Weitere Insights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-query is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Munich, Visbek, Herborn, 18 January 2022 \u2013 With testing and certification according to the new T\u00dcV S\u00dcD standard \u201cRecyclability of packaging\u201d, T\u00dcV S\u00dcD and RecycleMe GmbH are supporting manufacturers, bottlers, importers, online retailers, retail chains and other suppliers on their way to better sustainability.
