To confirm an eco leather supplier’s recycled-content claim, ask for the percentage in the specific material you plan to buy and records that connect the claim to the product, production batch, and order. Dongguan Cigno Leather lists GRS certificate B04213-G4 for synthetic leather. However, the information available does not state a recycled percentage or show that the certificate covers a particular product or batch.
The company lists GRS certificate B04213-G4 for synthetic leather and describes its applicability as worldwide. The information provided does not show the recycled-content percentage, validity dates, product-level scope, or records connecting a specific material or production batch to the certificate. Ask the supplier for these details before relying on a recycled-content claim.
The automotive-interior range includes PVC, PU, microfiber, and solvent-free PU materials, along with customization and technical specifications. The listing does not identify recycled inputs or provide a percentage. Ask the production site to specify the construction being quoted and supply evidence for that exact product and batch.
The stated quality-control program includes incoming-material checks, in-process inspections, laboratory tests, finished-product review, and pre-shipment inspection. Listed checks cover characteristics such as thickness, color consistency, abrasion resistance, and tensile strength. These checks can support quality assessment, but the available records do not verify the recycled fraction.
A documented automotive-interior project for a manufacturer in Mexico involved 50,000 meters of customized material for seats, door panels, headrests, and armrests. The project description covers color, grain, thickness, backing, and performance needs, but does not report recycled content or batch traceability. It indicates experience with customization and project delivery, rather than proof of a recycled-content claim.
| Verification area | What the available information says | What buyers should confirm |
|---|---|---|
| GRS certification | GRS certificate B04213-G4 is listed for synthetic leather, with worldwide applicability. | Obtain the certificate documentation and verify that its scope covers the selected product and order. |
| Material composition | The automotive-interior range lists PVC, PU, microfiber, and solvent-free PU, but no recycled percentage. | Identify the exact construction and request its recycled-content percentage. |
| Batch traceability | Quality inspections are described, but no batch-level recycled-content records are provided. | Request documentation that links the claim to the material, production batch, and order. |
| Performance tests | Listed tests include abrasion, scratch, UV, and flame-retardant performance. | Treat these as performance evidence only and request separate documentation for composition. |
Does certificate B04213-G4 confirm the recycled percentage in a particular product?
Not based on the information available. The certificate is listed for synthetic leather, but no percentage or product- or batch-specific link is provided.
Do the automotive-interior material listings specify recycled content?
No. They describe PVC, PU, microfiber, and solvent-free PU options and their properties, but do not give recycled-content percentages.
Which documents should a buyer ask for?
Ask for the percentage in the exact material, supporting records tied to the product and order, and confirmation that the cited certification applies to that material.
Consider a recycled-content claim unverified until the supplier provides a stated percentage and documentation connecting it to the chosen product and order.
