Definitions

6. The following terms are utilised in the Directory for the Site and have specific meanings. By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions you acknowledge that you have read and understood the definitions provided below.
1. Reused Material - A product that is utilised more than once for the same purpose for which is was originally conceived.
2. Remanufactured Material - A remanufactured product is not new, but composed of both new and restored components. Remanufacturing is the process of the disassembly of products known to be worn, defective, or discarded that can be reused or brought up to original equipment manufacture specification by cleaning, repairing or replacing in a manufacturing environment, and then reassembled to sound working condition, and tested. The remanufactured product is ready for a second life, performing as new. The components used for replacement may be new, recycled content or rebuilt themselves. Please indicate the percentage of the total product that is the original component
3. Pre-consumer material - Material diverted from the waste stream during a manufacturing process. Excluded is reutilisation of materials such as rework, regrind or scrap generated in a process and capable of being reclaimed within the same process that generated it.
4. Post-consumer material - Materials generated by households or by commercial, industrial and institutional facilities in their role as end users of a product which can no longer be used for its intended purpose. This includes returns of materials from the distribution chain.
5. Reutilised materials - Materials such as rework, regrind and scrap generated in a manufacturing process, and reclaimed within the same process that generated it. Note: Standards Australia excludes reutilised materials from the definition of pre-consumer recycled material. This category is however included in the database as it is recognised many companies make significant investments to improve processing technologies to allow company waste to be reutilised and hence removed from the waste stream.
6. Recyclability (recyclable, end-of-life recyclability) - A characteristic of a product, packaging or associated component that can be diverted from the waste stream through available processes and programmes and can be collected, processed and returned to use in the form of raw materials or products.
7. Quality Standards - A Standard is a published document which sets out specifications and procedures designed to ensure that a material, product, method or service is fit for its purpose and consistently performs in the way it was intended. Standards establish a common language which defines quality and establishes safety criteria.
8. Recycled material - Material that has been reprocessed from recovered (reclaimed) material by means of a manufacturing process and made into a final product or into a component for incorporation into a product.
9. Recycled content - Proportion, by mass, of recycled material in either a product OR packaging. Note: the weight and recycled content of a product’s packaging CANNOT be included in the product calculations. Packaging information should be supplied separately where applicable.
