The State Agency Buy Recycled Campaign (SABRC) is a state mandated program that requires the reporting of all purchases made within 16 specified product categories. All state agencies are required to verify the recycled-content of all products purchased within each of these categories.

All businesses shall certify the minimum percentage in writing to the contracting officer or his or her representative, if not the exact percentage, of postconsumer recycled-content (PCRC) material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies offered or sold to the State regardless of whether the product meets the minimum content requirements specified in law (see reverse side). The certification shall be furnished under penalty of perjury. The certification shall be provided regardless of content, even if the product contains no recycled material. A State agency may waive the certification requirement if the percentage of postconsumer material in the products, materials, goods, or supplies can be verified in a written advertisement, including, but not limited to, a product label, a catalog, or a manufacturer or vendor Internet website.

1. “Postconsumer recycled-content material” is defined as products that were bought, used, and recycled by consumers. For example, a newspaper that has been purchased, recycled, and used to make another product would be considered postconsumer material.

2. “Product category” refers to one of the categories listed below, into which the reportable purchase is best placed.

3. If the product does not belong in any of the product categories, enter “N/A.” Common “N/A” products include wood products, aggregate, concrete, and electronics such as computers, TV, software on a disk or CD, and telephones.

4. For reused or refurbished products, there is no minimum content requirement. (PCC 12209(l))
