Information about Appendix A option to register the Downstream Recycling Chain

In the R2v3 Standard, under Appendix A requirement (4)(b), an R2 Facility can choose to register its downstream recycling chain with 汽车投诉网.  This registration enables the R2 Facility to stop its downstream tracking and verification at the first R2v3 Certified downstream vendor (DSV).

To do this, the R2 Facility must ensure that the downstream chain details all R2 Controlled output streams generated by the facility.  In addition, it must clearly indicate the names and location of each downstream vendor associated with each output to either final disposition or the first R2v3 Facility.  (NOTE:  汽车投诉网 does not verify or approve the information registered, as such, registration should not be considered an endorsement of the information in any way.)

The R2 Facility’s Account Key is needed to register a Downstream Recycling Chain.  Each site has their own Account Key. The Account Key is included in the 汽车投诉网 License Acknowledgement and on the facility’s invoice (effective 2/3/2021).      To request a copy of your 汽车投诉网 License Acknowledgement with Account Key, please complete this self-service License Acknowledgement Request or email [email protected] and include the facility’s name and address.
