| Business Name | Packaging Recyclability Value Effective Date |
| Business Definition | |
| Example | The following example illustrates the use of recyclability attributes commonly used together for a product sold with two levels of packaging – a plastic pump dosing bottle encased in a cardboard folding box:
• packagingLevel = 1 (the pump dosing unit)
- packagingRecyclabilityAssessmentSpecificationCode = DEUTSCHER_MINDESTSTANDARD
- packagingRecyclabilityValue = 80%
- packagingRecyclabilityValueEffectiveDate = 01.06.2022
• packagingLevel = 2 (the folding box)
- packagingRecyclabilityAssessmentSpecificationCode = DEUTSCHER_MINDESTSTANDARD
- packagingRecyclabilityValue = 90%
- packagingRecyclabilityValueEffectiveDate = 01.02.2022
After the packaging is updated to improve recyclability:
• packagingLevel = 1 (the pump dosing unit)
- packagingRecyclabilityAssessmentSpecificationCode = DEUTSCHER_MINDESTSTANDARD
- packagingRecyclabilityValue = 90%
- packagingRecyclabilityValueEffectiveDate = 01.10.2022
• packagingLevel = 2 (the folding box)
- packagingRecyclabilityAssessmentSpecificationCode = DEUTSCHER_MINDESTSTANDARD
- packagingRecyclabilityValue = 95%
- packagingRecyclabilityValueEffectiveDate = 01.10.2022 |
| Usage Statement | Used by retailers to avoid publishing incorrect information in webshops and in advertising when the packaging is changed to one with a different degree of recyclability. |
