Summary

Researchers compared domestic and international plastic-free certification systems to identify gaps and propose improvement directions, finding key differences in criteria and verification standards that could inform a more robust domestic certification framework for plastic-free products.

Regulations on plastic use are being strengthened worldwide, and consumer concerns about plastic waste are also increasing. A certification system for plastic-free products will show consumers that they trust the use of plastic, protect the environment, and show companies that strive for sustainability. Accordingly, this study compared domestic and overseas plastic-free certification systems to identify similarities and differences, and then looked for alternatives to the insufficient elements of the certification system based on the analysis results. Through this, this study presented improvement directions for efficiently implementing the domestic plastic-free certification system and compared the results.
