The U.S. State of California SB 343 Update Recognized Carton Recyclability

Release time:2026-07-09

The author:BCRC China

On June 29, The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) published an update to its Senate Bill 343 Final Findings Report findings to confirm that food and beverage cartons meet the statewide sortation threshold required for recyclable labeling under the statute. The update revises Table 2 of CalRecycle’s S.B. 343 Final Findings Report to reflect that cartons are now sorted for recycling by large-volume transfer and processing facilities serving 62 percent of California counties. This exceeds the threshold established by S.B. 343 that determines if a package can be labeled as recyclable.
