ReMade® Certification

Certimac supports companies in verifying and certifying the recycled material content of their products according to the ReMade Certification scheme.

DISCOVER HOW WE SUPPORT YOU
What is ReMade® Certification and why is it important?
ReMade® Certification is a certification scheme accredited according to ISO 17065 that verifies the content of recycled material and/or by-products contained in a material, semi-finished product, or finished product.

It is becoming an increasingly important tool within circular economy policies, as it allows companies to credibly demonstrate the share of recycled content used in their products. ReMade® Certification also plays a key role in Green Public Procurement (GPP) policies and in the Italian Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM), where proof of recycled content is often required or rewarded in public procurement procedures.

ReMade Certification ensures transparency and traceability of production processes and material flows, from the verification of material origin through to the final product, providing objective and verifiable evidence of recycled content.

Thanks to the contribution of Dr Filippo Baioli and Dr Alessia Cavinacertified ReMade consultants, Certimac supports companies throughout the certification process, assisting them across all stages: technical analysis of materials, preparation of the documentation required by the scheme, preparation for the audit, and valorisation of the obtained certification.
Who it is for

The service is intended for companies that manufacture or place on the market products and materials containing recycled raw materials. In particular, the certification pathway is strategic for:
  • Construction material manufacturers: to ensure that products comply with the technical requirements of sustainable construction.
  • Companies operating in the plastics and polymer value chain: to certify the recycled content of products in line with the new European directives on packaging.
  • Manufacturers of industrial components and furniture: to enhance the use of regenerated resources in material-intensive sectors.
  • Companies participating in public procurement procedure: to meet the mandatory requirements of the Italian Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) and obtain additional scoring advantages in supply tenders.
  • Companies can turn to our certified consultants to efficiently navigate all the steps leading to ReMade Certification: from the initial check-up to verify the existence of the required criteria, through the preparation of necessary documentation and the on-site company assessment, up to the proper communication strategies to fully leverage all the benefits offered by the certification.
    Benefits of ReMade Certification for companies

    Obtaining ReMade Certification offers several strategic and operational advantages:
  • Compliance with CAM and access to public procurement
    ReMade® Certification is recognised as valid proof of compliance with the Italian Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) required in public procurement. This provides a competitive advantage and enables access to new market opportunities.
  • Incentives and tax benefits
    ReMade® certified products may benefit from financial incentives and tax relief measures, contributing to cost optimisation and improved profitability.
  • Enhanced reputation and market positioning
    Demonstrating a tangible commitment to sustainability through an accredited certification strengthens corporate reputation, increases trust among customers and business partners, and positions the company as a leader in the circular economy.
  • Transparency and effective communication
    Certification provides verified and traceable data to support clear, robust, and credible environmental communication, in line with sustainability reporting requirements. To further strengthen this communication, companies may request the ReMade label to be affixed to the product or included in the technical datasheet.
  • Market visibility
    Certified products may be listed in the ReMade Catalogue, a dedicated platform aimed at promoting certified products to market stakeholders and facilitating their identification and selection.
  • Competitive advantage in the circular economy
    Both market dynamics and European regulatory frameworks are increasingly oriented towards the valorisation of recycled content. Anticipating these developments represents a strategic competitive advantage.

    ReMade Certification – FAQ

    ReMade® Certification is an accredited environmental certification scheme (according to ISO 17065) that verifies the percentage of recycled material or by-products contained in a product, semi-finished good, or material. It ensures transparent and verifiable information on the origin of raw materials and traceability throughout the entire production chain, supporting companies in implementing circular economy strategies.
    Unlike many other environmental labels, ReMade® is a multi-material certification scheme accredited by Accredia. This means it can be applied across different sectors (construction, plastics, textiles, furniture, etc.), and that verification is carried out by independent third-party certification bodies. This guarantees a high level of reliability and legal recognition, particularly within Italian public procurement.
    ReMade® Certification is explicitly recognised as a means of proof for demonstrating compliance with the Italian Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) required under Green Public Procurement (GPP). In Italian public tenders, holding this certification allows companies to meet mandatory recycled-content requirements and obtain additional scoring advantages in procurement procedures.
    Companies that manufacture or purchase ReMade® certified products may benefit from specific incentives and tax relief measures provided by Italian legislation aimed at promoting the circular economy. These may include tax credits for the purchase of recycled materials and incentives linked to reducing the environmental impacts of production processes.
    Although it originated in Italy and represents the primary reference for national CAM requirements, ReMade® Certification has strong international relevance thanks to its ISO 17065 accreditation. It is increasingly recognised at European level as a tool for demonstrating a company’s commitment to the objectives of the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and for supporting sustainability and ESG reporting.
