What were the criteria for assessing a factories waste management standard?

i may have missed it, but can you share the scale of some of these waste categories?

red/green/black…. how many tons/kgs, what is the % of each… if that data is available it would be really great to put a scale to this

how is the effort being balanced between reduce, reuse, recycle etc?

The product compliance must be very challenging when creating a product with other companies' waste. Any thoughts on that?

What is this materials marketplace called? There are several out there. Is this one new? Better for some reason?

Can the project extend outside of China?

The ultimate question - what is the cost?

Is this really for brands that don’t have a waste program in place with their factories? What is the value to those brands that have quite sophisticated waste management, segregation, reduction and recycling programs in place?

Great and important work! Thank you for doing it.

Designers can use recycled materials if they can see them , touch and know the price and ect. Are there any swatch books available?

Very interesting information! Thanks you
