Working together across the chain

With recycled materials it is not always clear where it came from and how it was originally produced, and that’s exactly why collaboration is essential. From recyclers and compounders to producers and clients, we work together to trace materials back to their origin and document what we can verify. By combining knowledge and data from multiple partners, we build a clearer picture of each material’s story and impact.

The challenge of tracking

Tracking materials isn’t easy. In many cases, disposers and recyclers no longer have full insight into where certain waste streams originally came from or what was added along the way. That lack of information makes it difficult to guarantee complete traceability, but it also drives us to innovate. We’re developing better documentation processes and exploring digital tools that make material histories more visible and verifiable.

Why transparency matters

Circularity depends on access to trustworthy data. Without it, it’s impossible to recycle materials safely, reuse them effectively, or communicate their true environmental value. By gathering and sharing verified information, we help our partners design with confidence, knowing what’s inside the products they specify and how those materials can live on.

Building towards full traceability

We’re preparing our systems for a future where every product can be digitally traced, from origin to reuse. That means aligning with emerging standards for digital product passports and continuously improving the data we collect and share.
It’s an ongoing journey, but each step brings us closer to truly transparent, circular material flows.
