Send your item codes. We send the declarations.
Tell us your article numbers or ours (for example VM-01E-S316) and whether your buyer's template must be filled. Declarations are in English and sent on request.
What we do not claim
No recyclability grade can be issued today; the criteria are not adopted yet. Recycled content is declared as 0 %. Our declarations support your compliance file; they are not a substitute for your own Declaration of Conformity where you are the producer. We say this in writing, because a buyer's auditor will ask.
