Valpak offers support for Green Code Claims compliance | UKFT Member Spotlight
16/05/2023
UKFT associate member Valpak can support UK fashion and textile business to meet the requirements of the Green Claims Code, set out by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).
The CMA’s Green Claims Code is a comprehensive document that outlines how businesses should conduct themselves to avoid ‘greenwashing’ and advises how to make legitimate green claims that accurately describe the environmental impact of products, brands, businesses, and/or services. Sufficient evidence is required to back up green claims.
Valpak can offer UK fashion and textile brands a number of services to meet the requirements of the Green Claims Code, including:
- Help with gathering evidence to substantiate claims via the Insight Platform
- Life cycle assessments and carbon footprinting – third-party verification and reports to provide evidence that claims are accurate
- Analysis of packaging to verify recyclability and recycled content, and to ensure best in class
- Independent certification of an organisation’s Zero Waste to Landfill achievement
