Din Certco certification systems in the environmental field: Show the difference


International Conference and Exhibition on Biopolymers & Bioplastics

Abstract :

Sustainable products are more and more focused by the polymer, packaging and other industries. Here, the confirmation of
the respective properties becomes increasingly important especially the so-called “end-of-life” options like compostability or
biodegradability. On the other hand the use of recycled materials or bio-based materials becomes more and more interesting for
retailers, suppliers and end-consumers. Unfortunately, these properties are not visible at first glance. Therefore, independent third
party labeling shows the difference and highlights your products. In this presentation DIN CERTCO will present its customized
certification schemes for the following kinds of products, intermediates, materials and additives: Products made of compostable
materials (“Seedling”-logo, EN 13432 and others); Products made of compostable materials (“DIN-Geprüft”-logo, EN 13432 and
others); Products made of compostable materials for home and garden composting (AS 5810); Biobased Products (ASTM D 6866,
CEN/TS 16137); Products made of recycled materials (ISO 14021, EN 15343) DIN CERTCO is the certification organization of
TUV Rheinland Group and DIN e. V., the German Institute for Standardization. It is highly regarded at home and abroad for its
independence, neutrality, competence and more than 40 years experience in the field.
