FAQs about MRc4 :

I have recycled content information for a product, but it doesn’t specify whether it is pre-consumer or post-consumer. What should I do?

The recycled content percentage on the product data sheet is given as a range. What should I do?

The manufacturer can't give me product-specific recycled content data, but they say that they fall within the national industry average. Can I use that?

Is the default average recycled content value of 25% for steel still allowed?

Can site materials, such as soil, be included in the MR credit calculations?

Are there recycled content claims that I should be wary of?

Can I count FSC-certified MDF toward both MRc4 and MRc7?

If I have one cut sheet that meets the LEED 2009 requirement to upload 20% of cut sheets by cost, for this credit, is that acceptable?

NC-2009 MRc4:Recycled Content

calculating shipping costs for multiple items

I can't find how to factor in shipping for multiple items. For example, under the MRc4 - I have four items from one company, so the four will be shipped together. Do I divide shipping by 4 and add the cost to each product, and then factor pre/post consumer value? Or am I missing something? Thanks!

Amy - Your idea to divide the shipping among the 4 products and then calculate the pre/post consumer recycled content value is sound. This methodology reflects that you are trying to accurately represent each qualifying product's cost as delivered to the jobsite.
