We are excited to announce that NRS Relief, along with its manufacturing arm, HSNDS, has achieved the Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification for our core relief items. This certification underscores our commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible manufacturing practices. The GRS certification brings numerous benefits not only to our organisation but also to our customers and stakeholders. The GRS certification ensures that our definitions and practices align with industry standards across multiple applications. This enables clear and consistent communication about recycled materials, such as:

1. Tracking and Tracing.

We have implemented systems to track and trace recycled input materials throughout our manufacturing process. This helps ensure the authenticity of recycled content and enables transparency in our supply chain.

2. Informed Decision-Making.

The GRS certification provides our customers with a valuable tool to make informed decisions. It empowers them to choose products that align with their sustainability goals and support responsible manufacturing practices.

3. Reduced Environmental Impact.

By adhering to the GRS requirements, we actively reduce the harmful impact of our production processes on people and the environment. This includes minimizing resource consumption, waste generation, and emissions associated with core relief items manufacturing.

4. Sustainable Processing.

The GRS certification provides assurance that the materials used in our final products have been recycled and processed in a more sustainable manner. This helps in conserving natural resources and promotes the circular economy.

5. Driving Innovation.

The GRS certification promotes innovation in addressing quality issues related to the use of recycled materials. It challenges us to constantly improve our processes and find innovative solutions that meet both sustainability and quality standards. Besides environmental criteria, the GRS also covers social requirements. The assessment process involves thorough reviews of social policies to maintain relevance and effectiveness. HSNDS is a SA8000 certified company, showcasing compliance with GRS social criteria and supporting the principles outlined by the United Nations Global Compact. Furthermore, we have strengthened a comprehensive Environmental Management System (EMS) to address the environmental requirements outlined by the GRS. This includes areas such as energy use, water conservation, wastewater management, air emissions, and waste management.

We are proud to have achieved the GRS certification and will continue to prioritize sustainability and responsible practices in our manufacturing processes. By choosing NRS Relief products, you can be confident in supporting a brand committed to social and environmental responsibility.
