Cradle to Cradle Certified Product Standard
Do you want to set yourself apart and focus on the future by making your products more sustainable? With the Cradle to Cradle certification process you can make your products demonstrably more sustainable step by step, so that they fit within the idea of a circular economy. And you? You will save on costs, add value to your products for your clients and allow innovation and creativity to blossom within your organisation and with your suppliers.
The idea of Cradle to Cradle helps entrepreneurs to design their products in a more intelligent fashion. By removing harmful substances from products, the separate materials can be fully reused or returned to nature. The creators of the Cradle to Cradle process, Michael Braungart and William McDonough, wrote the books Cradle to Cradle and The Upcycle. SGS Search commissioned these publications to be published in Dutch.
