Specright and How2Recycle to Eliminate Recycling Confusion with Clearer Packaging Labels

The partnership aims to leverage digitized specification data to create clear, accurate packaging and labeling recycling instructions.

Specification Management software provider Specright announced a partnership with How2Recycle, a standardized labeling system that clearly communicates disposal instructions to the public. Together, the companies are working to connect digitized specification data to inform the creation of clear, accurate recycling instructions on packaging across the U.S. and Canada in an effort to eliminate consumer confusion around recycling.

“When it comes to claims around sustainability and recycling, it’s critical that companies have the most accurate data and for that reason, ideally one source of truth for packaging material data,” said Paul Nowak, Executive Director of GreenBlue. “In the How2Recycle program, we ask up to sixty questions about any single piece of packaging and generally this information can be found in a specification. We look forward to working with Specright to help harmonize our data into one platform, leading to a positive ripple effect across every organization in the packaging industry.”
