Tabella di marcia di RecyClass
tabella di marcia di RecyClass
Gentili utenti dello strumento,
Come sempre, RecyClass si impegna a garantire che tu possa utilizzare le informazioni più aggiornate e affidabili quando valuti la riciclabilità dei tuoi imballaggi in plastica. In linea con ciò, di seguito troverai una panoramica delle caratteristiche degli imballaggi attualmente studiati dai comitati tecnici di RecyClass.
Sono in corso diverse campagne di test con l'obiettivo di generare dati aggiornati, solidi e affidabili. I risultati di questi test potrebbero comportare una classificazione aggiornata delle linee guida sulla progettazione per il riciclaggio e un diverso punteggio da parte dello strumento online.
La tabella verrà rivista regolarmente per tenerti informato su tutti i potenziali cambiamenti.
Per le campagne di prova 2024, la tabella di marcia verrà aggiornata a febbraio.
