Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPG) Program

Under the Comprehensive Procurement Guideline (CPG) program, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) designates products that are or can be made with recovered materials, and recommends practices for buying these products.  Once a product is designated, procuring federal agencies are required to purchase it with the highest recovered material content level practicable.  Buying recycled content products helps to ensure that the materials collected in home and office recycling programs will be used again in the manufacturing of new products. CPG products are required under FAR 23.103.

Buying CPG products? Review FAR provision 52.223-4opens in new window and clauses 52.223-9opens in new window and 52.223-23opens in new window for applicability. Note:  Federal agencies are directed to prioritize items that are both CPG and BioPreferred; however, in instances when federal agencies must choose between the two programs, and both items meet the agency's needs, federal agencies are directed to procure the CPG item.
