It may be in the production process, in its application or recyclability. This includes natural, organic and all biodegradeable goods. Fully recycled goods should ideally be made from 100% post consumer waste but not all products have this property. We will consider and market products hat contain a percentage of recycled material but other environmental factors may give an non recycled product further benefits therefore these will also be included.
Have a long life span and further recycling capabilities Durability is an important factor as the product may be in use every day. It should not create waste or have a damaging effect on the environment. If possible, the product can be recycled at the end of its useable life.
