Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines

Comprehensive Procurement GuidelinesWelcome to the U.S. EPA's Web site for the Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPG)—a key component of the government's "buy-recycled" program. Today, more and more products are made from recycled materials—from the carpeting and insulation used in office buildings, to the reams of office paper purchased each day. Buying recycled helps "close the recycling loop" by putting the materials we collect through recycling programs back to good use as products in the marketplace.

At this Web site, you'll find all you need to know about the CPG and EPA's Recovered Materials Advisory Notices (RMANs), which recommend recycled-content levels for CPG items. Explore this site by clicking on any of the links to the left.
