Improving recyclability ...
... is a challenge for all European countries. The European Declaration on Paper Recycling 2006–2010 can be found on the ERPC website.
In order to promote a European "Recyclability Label" for print products, INGEDE supports the development of test methods for recyclability that are agreed upon all over Europe. At a workshop in Darmstadt different approaches were discussed.
Workshops Test Methods
CEPI Guidelines on responsible sourcing of recovered paper (Jan 2006) and
