TXT006 - Missing Recycled-Content Disclosure

Description

Validation warning TXT006. Fires under the textile-v2 profile when a textile passport carries neither a fibre-level recycledMassFraction declaration nor a performanceClaim whose conformityTopic mentions recycled-content. ESPR / textile-v2 wants the producer to make the recycled-content statement explicit — zero is acceptable, silence is not.

Severity

warning

Common Causes

  • Material composition entries omit the recycledMassFraction field.
  • Sustainability claims are present but use a different conformityTopic (e.g. bio-based, low-impact) without naming recycled content explicitly.

How to Fix

Either:

  • Populate materialProvenance[*].recycledMassFraction on at least one fibre (a value of 0.0 is acceptable — the rule wants an explicit statement, not a non-zero one), or
  • Add a performanceClaim whose conformityTopic contains recycled-content.

Example

JSON
{
  "credentialSubject": {
    "materialProvenance": [
      {
        "materialName": "Cotton",
        "recycledMassFraction": 0.30
      }
    ]
  }
}
