What we offer
The tools offered by COTREP are aimed at the entire household plastic packaging value chain. From test protocols to general advice and eco-design recommendations, they can help you design or optimize your packaging to develop recyclable solutions, while enabling innovation.
Sharing general recommendations
To answer questions across the value chain, COTREP works on topics of general interest.
All tests and work done for more than 15 years are summarized in the COTREP Guidelines for recyclability.
The tests and studies carried out are also available in detail in the general notices.
Supporting industrials
When designing or developing new packaging, COTREP assists you in evaluating the recyclability of your packaging.
Tests can be carried out autonomously, using the test protocols provided by COTREP. Please note that only packaging with market penetration rates already defined by COTREP can follow these protocols. If this is not the case, you can contact COTREP to inform them of your wish to test. COTREP will let you know whether it is possible to carry out this protocol on your packaging.
