Every buyer fears a sustainability story gone wrong, asking: Is this really recycled? Can I trust the source? Does it use child labor? Oceanworks guidelines set the requirements for a supplier and its material to be listed as Oceanworks Guaranteed™. We focus on five categories: collection area compliance, environmental stewardship, social impact, business compliance, and recycling processes and segregation.
Oceanworks® Guaranteed materials are independently validated. Oceanworks conducts 3rd-party testing through its globally recognized laboratory partners to confirm resins are contamination free and processing parameters are met. The Oceanworks Guaranteed mark indicates that the material meets specifications and has been sourced in compliance with international standards for business, environmental, and fair labor practices. Traceability is ensured with Oceanworks Guaranteed material and transaction certificates for each order.
Traceability and global commerce have converged, making track and trace a crucial tool to reduce supply chain risk. Detailed documentation is the foundation of our Oceanworks Guaranteed visual track and trace system. Tonnage orders are accompanied with transaction certificates that track the chain of custody for Oceanworks materials from the source to your loading dock.
Scaling your recycled plastic program requires reliable capacity at volume. Our Oceanworks Guaranteed supplier network has a capacity of over 15,000 tonnes per month with quality and batch-to-batch consistency guaranteed.
