The Recycle Check is a tool to one of the many choices that packaging designers, but also marketers and buyers have to make if they bring a new product or packaging on the market. The tool has the model of a decision tree. The user will be asked a short series of questions about the material and packaging components that affect the sorting and recycling. The questions should be answered with yes or no. KIDV also gives background information for each question on the different aspects of sorting and recycling.
