CosPaTox is a European industry consortium focused on establishing safety and quality standards for post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics used in packaging for cosmetics, personal care, and household cleaning products. It brings together stakeholders across the value chain to address the safe use of recycled polymers in non-food contact applications.
The consortium develops and maintains voluntary guidelines and testing frameworks that help recyclers, converters, and brand owners qualify PCR materials, manage potential contaminants, conduct risk assessments, and document conformity with applicable EU regulations. By harmonizing evaluation methods and providing practical guidance, CosPaTox aims to increase confidence in recycled plastics for packaging and support circular-economy objectives through the responsible, safe uptake of PCR materials.
