The flustix Community Continues to Grow

The addition of such renowned licensees underscores the global significance of flustix certifications. flustix has firmly established itself as a trusted proof of sustainability for products that guide consumers at the Point of Sale.

 

Focusing on Circularity and Material Reduction

Certified companies demonstrate that sustainable product design is shaping the future of the industry. Their strategies include:

  • Materials efficiently returned to existing cycles: such as paper, plastic, glass, or metal.
  • Reduction or redesign of composite materials: to maximise recyclability.

 

flustix Certifications: Powerful Symbols of True Sustainability

A flustix certification represents adherence to the highest sustainability standards and already meets the requirements of the Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition Directive (ECGT) and the forthcoming Green Claims Directive (GCD). Companies that qualify for flustix certification make a bold statement: they commit to sustainable practices, actively contribute to reducing plastic use, ensure that this valuable material is utilised sustainably, and strengthen and close material cycles. Additionally, the independent and recognised proof offers financial advantages, particularly in countries where plastic taxes already apply to marketed products.

flustix congratulates all new licensees on their successful certification. You can find all flustix Licensees in our Certification Database. With flustix certification, they not only make a significant contribution to the environment but also strengthen their position as businesses ready to meet current and imminent regulatory requirements.

About flustix

The organisation, founded in Berlin in 2017, offers six distinct flustix seals: The flustix LESS PLASTICS – MIN. xx% PLASTIC-FREE seals certify, in collaboration with recognised testing laboratories and accredited certification bodies, the entire product as well as either its packaging or the product itself. Products that refrain from using microplastics are transparently labelled with the PLASTIC-FREE – Product Content Microplastic-Free seal. The flustix RECYCLED – DIN geprüft seal certifies recyclates, semi-finished goods, and products with recycled content, including plastics, metals, and glass. flustix RECYCLABLE independently communicates the recyclability of packaging. The flustix seals serve as a guide for consumers and thereby support companies in pursuing a sustainability-focused business strategy and ensuring credible sustainability communication.
