This label can be verified only by following up with each producer to specify the type of content. Is it made from recycled plastic, metal or paper products? Usually visually recycled content products have a more textured surface and are typically not bleached/dyed. However there are bags, pens and even components of cars which look exactly like they were made from “virgin” material. So you can’t always judge a book from its cover. Using materials made from recycled content exhibit that you are reducing the extraction of already limited raw materials or slowing down the development of land from pristine ecosystems to industrial and potentially polluted sites.
