We help companies standardize relevant systems and procedures to ensure that they meet the relevant requirements of the EU circular economy, help companies enjoy tax breaks, and improve market competitiveness.

Service Background
The EN15343 standard is issued by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and aims to ensure the quality and source of recycled plastics by establishing a systematic and traceable evaluation system. At the same time, EN15343 also focuses on the issue of recycled plastic content. Applicants can use EN15343 certification to ensure the content of recycled plastics in products and increase the transparency of recycled materials in the supply chain.

At present, in major plastic recycling countries such as Germany, France, Italy, and Spain, passing the EN15343 certification has become a pass for companies to enter the European market. In addition, according to Spanish regulations, starting from 2024, the content of recycled plastics in non-reusable plastic packaging exported to Spain must be certified based on the UNE-EN-15343 standard in order to apply for plastic tax exemption.
