"Only the products which are covered by a
valid Transaction certificate are GRS certified"
When it comes to GRS or GRS ( Global Recycle Standard ) refers to the most important international standard that certifies the sustainable production of garments and textile products made with recycled materials .
The standard recognizes the importance of moderating the consumption of resources (virgin raw materials, water and energy) as much as possible and increasing the quality of recycled products and is promoted by Textile Exchange, one of the most important international non-profit organizations for development responsible and sustainable in the textile sector.
The GRS provides for the release of an environmental declaration verified by a third party, which guarantees the content of recycled materials of their products (both intermediate and finished), traceability throughout the entire production process, limitations in the use of chemical products and compliance with environmental and social criteria in all construction phases.
The Global Recycle Standard ensures:
products with a content between 20% and 100% of pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled material;
manufacturing activities and processes with the use of recycled material, to create intermediate products (for example: yarns and fabrics) or finished products for the consumer, using models and management procedures that comply with the established requirements.
​​
However, for the product to be considered truly recycled and GRS certified, it must be accompanied by a certificate, called TC ( Transaction Certificate ), issued by a Certification Body to a manufacturer who has had all the loads and unloadings of the warehouse checked. every single production (from the purchase, to the realization of internal and external semi-finished products, to the warehouse payment, to the final shipment).
All Mapel Textile warehouse loading and unloading movements are recorded on time by all our operators and periodically checked by ICEA, the most accredited GRS Certification Body in Italy.
All our GRS polyester yarn comes from plastic bottles taken from separate waste collection and can be considered ecological , as:
it originates from the recycling of resources otherwise they would be destined for incinerators (or even worse left in nature);
complies with REACH regulations as they are produced in Europe;
has GRS certification as they are made from recycled materials delivered by Certified Suppliers.
Our product comes from recovery.
