Using industrial packaging with recycled content.Promoting the sustainable use of plastic.

The "my recycled content" database is an initiative set up by industrial recovery systems
across Europe and is intended to promote the use of industrial and commercial packaging
made from recycled plastics. Here you will find a summary of existing packaging
solutions with certified recycled content and the matching packaging solution. Entirely in
line with the motto "What we do today shapes the world of tomorrow", we want to work
with you to promote the use of recycled plastics and to play our part in using these
sustainably.

Find the right packaging with recycled content

Quickly and easily find the right packaging with recycled content. With our database, existing solutions featuring certified recycled content can be filtered according to the relevant properties.

If we all use packaging that contain recycled plastics, we are doing more than just avoiding the destruction of natural resources. The recycling of plastic also saves CO₂.

Having recycled content in packaging certified

Use the certification from the Design for Recycling and Use of Recycled Materials section via our PlastCert department!

We certify Design for Recycling (recycling compatibility), Recycled Plastic (use of recycled material) and Recycling Process (recycled materials) according to RecyClass, an initiative from the Plastics Recyclers Europe.

We would be happy to help you with the certification of your products - allow us to offer you our no-obligation advice.

Let us advise you

Why should you use packaging made from recycled plastic?

Sustainable use of plastics

The use of recycled plastic protects fossil
resources and saves CO2 compared to
the use of virgin materials.

Follow the CSRD messages.

CSRD reporting, which will be mandatory for listed companies from the reference year 2024, comprises the collection, measurement, analysis and communication of information on a company's economic, social and environmental impact.

Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

By using recycled material in plastic packaging, your company helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused by the extraction, transportation and processing of fossil raw materials. Every ton of recycled plastic reduces CO₂ emissions by 3.03 tons.

Promotion of the circular economy.

The use of recycled plastics increases the demand for secondary raw materials and gives them a value. This gives recyclers stable sales and the opportunity to invest in better sorting and recycling processes. It strengthens the circular economy and promotes local industry.

Saves energy

The production of plastics from recycled material generally consumes less energy than the production of new plastics from fossil raw materials. The use of recycled material in industrial packaging can save energy and thus reduce the ecological footprint.

Anticipation of legislation on the obligation to use recycled content.

In its draft regulation on packaging and packaging waste, the European Commission stipulates the use of 35% recycled material in all industrial plastic packaging from 2030.

Our path: responsible and innovative

We are aware of the tremendous responsibility that our task carries, and have always
expected the very highest standards from our work. Building on many years of experience, as
well as in-depth expertise, RIGK's team, in its role as a partner to industry, successfully
creates and operates innovative recycling systems for industry and agriculture, providing
support for various topics relating to the recovery and recycling of packaging and plastics.
