90%, by cost, of products within the Materials Petal Scope must be tracked for Red List compliance (details regarding scope requirements can be found in the Materials Petal Scope clarification for Imperative 12- Responsible Materials). All products included within the 90% compliance threshold must be vetted and include the required ingredient disclosure documentation to demonstrate Red List compliance. Products must either be entirely free of Red List chemicals included in the Red List CASRN Guide (near the bottom of the page), or fulfill the requirements of one or more of the published Exceptions.
Project teams are encouraged to vet and document in excess of 90% to account for a reasonable margin of error. Project teams may choose to assign some products to the 10% non-compliant column in the Materials Tracking Table, but are advised that the certification auditor will adjust a project’s compliant percentage as necessary when improperly documented products are found. Project teams that cannot demonstrate compliance for a minimum of 90% of materials risk not being awarded this Imperative.
