What is SABRC Certification?
Every product, material, good, or supply must have its recycled content certified by the supplier. Regardless of the recycled content, or even if the product has no recycled content, the supplier must indicate that on the certification form or through some other form of written certification. This certification, provided by the product supplier, begins the flow of information that eventually gets reported at the end of the year. Without the consistent use of the certification form, or some other institutionalized procedure to collect the recycled-content information, agencies and departments will continue to struggle to gather the procurement data needed for the SABRC annual procurement report. The RCP Directory encourages product manufacturers and vendors to precertify their products so that they are readily purchasable and so that state agencies can readily identify compliant products.
