Textile Exchange seeks feedback on recycling standards

07/04/2021
The Textile Exchange is seeking feedback on the current version of the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) 4.0 and Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) 2.0 as part of a comprehensive revision. 

The Recycled Claim Standard and Global Recycled Standard are international, voluntary standards that set requirements for third-party certification of recycled input and chain of custody. 

The feedback will help Textile Exchange reform the standard this year. 

The US-based association said: “We will research your issues submitted during the Open Feedback Period. In collaboration with the International Working Group, we will be creating a Draft GRS 5.0 and Draft RCS 3.0 that will also be released for public comment.”

The feedback period closes on May 31, 2021.
