1 Items and Evaluation Criteria M ops
Evaluation criteria M ust fulfill one of the following.
1 Recycled material including unused fiber, recycled fiber, and other
recycled material makes up at least 25 of weigh of all fibers. 2
Recycled material including unused fiber, recycled fiber, and other recycled material makes up at least 10 of weight, and a system
for collecting, reuse and recycling materials after product use is established.
Factors for consideration 1A system for collecting, reuse and recycling materials after product use
is established. 2Packaging and stowage is to be as simple as possible and take into
account ease of recycling and reduced environmental impact upon disposal.
Note: 1. Weight of all fibers denotes the weight of all product excluding accessories such as
handle, grip and metal parts, etc. from all of product. The weight of accessories used recycled plastic may be includes “the weight of all fibers” and “the weight of unused
fiber, recycled fiber and other recycled material”.
2. Recycled plastic denotes part or all of plastic once used as a part of a useful product that
has been discarded, remnants discarded during the manufacturing process, or the recyclereuse of defective articles. This excludes, however, plastic that has been
recycled in the process of manufacturing the product.
3. Unused fiber is created by reusing short fiber produced during spinning i.e. linter. 4. Recycled fiber is created from part or all of material discarded from the production of
recycled fiber, from remnants discarded during the manufacturing process, or from the reuse of defective articles.
5. Reconstructed fiber is created by decomposing and creating into linear form materials
such as remnants from manufacturing of clothing, and products that are no longer in use.
6. Recycled material denotes part or all of material once used as a part of a useful product
that has been discarded, remnants discarded during the manufacturing process, or the recyclereuse of defective articles This excludes, however, material that has been
recycled in the process of manufacturing the product.
7. A system is in place for the collection, reuse and recycling denotes the fulfillment of
the below requirements. A system for collection should fulfill the below requirements a. and b.
a. The manufacturer or the seller has a system a collection system located at the manufacturer or the seller, or collection in response to the user’s request for
voluntarily collecting collecting on its own or commissioning other companies to collect; includes situations where multiple businesses undertake the collection
together used products.
b. In order to precipitate appropriate collection, specific information for the collection collection method, collection location, etc. of used products is
available from the products body, package, catalog and website for the users.

A system for reuse and recycling should fulfill the below requirements c. and d.
c. The collected products must be reused, material recycled and chemical recycled. d. The parts that cannot be reuse or recycling of collected products must energy
recovered.
2 Target Setting Guideline Ratio of the number of mops that meeting the criteria to the total number of mops to be
