🚨 Not every recovery claim represents genuine recycling—and the consequences can be significant for producers.
By Cirqulus Solutions

As EPR regulations continue to evolve, regulatory authorities are placing greater emphasis on transparency, traceability, and accountability across the recycling value chain. This means producers can no longer rely solely on recovery certificates—they must also verify the authenticity of the recovery process behind them.
Accepting fake or unsupported recovery claims can expose organizations to:
⚠️ Rejected EPR claims and certificates ⚠️ Regulatory investigations and compliance actions ⚠️ Financial losses and operational disruptions ⚠️ Damage to brand reputation and stakeholder trust ⚠️ Increased audit observations and legal liabilities
The challenge is that fraudulent recovery claims often appear legitimate on paper. Without proper due diligence, businesses may unknowingly partner with recyclers that lack the required infrastructure, process incorrect material quantities, or submit inaccurate documentation.
Our latest article explores:
✅ Why fake recovery claims are becoming a growing concern in the recycling ecosystem
✅ The risks they create for producers, importers, and brand owners
✅ The importance of verified recovery data and transparent documentation
✅ How end-to-end traceability strengthens compliance and reduces business risk
✅ Best practices for selecting reliable and compliant recycling partners
In today’s compliance landscape, trust must be backed by evidence. Every recovery claim should be supported by verifiable records, authenticated documentation, and complete material traceability. Strong compliance isn’t achieved by collecting certificates—it’s achieved by ensuring those certificates represent genuine environmental outcomes.
