Evaluation
Thorough audit and assurance process
- Plastic recovered through each project is tracked and traced via reTrace technology.
- Through the year, in line with a comprehensive guide to audit and assurance, each project undergoes multiple audits for environmental compliance and social safeguards. These are carried out by both internal and external teams.
Impact guaranteed with rePurpose’s proprietary technology - reTrace
reTrace™ is rePurpose Global's proprietary technology tool for impact verification. Every kilogram of plastic waste is recorded, uploaded, and verified through a chain-of-custody approach.
reTrace™ makes all impact data readily available for regular third-party audits.
