Made in UK
Labelling a product with ‘Made in Britain’ has to meet the expectation that the economic origin of the product is Great Britain, at least to a sufficient extent, so that customers are not misled. This is imposed in the UK by the Trade Descriptions Act 1968 and similarly regulated overseas.
Recycled
Product is made of post-consumer material and byproducts that have been recovered or diverted from solid waste, and have been utilized in place of raw or virgin material in manufacturing a product.
Upcycled
By-products, waste, and other unwanted material are reused to create this product.
