Minimum Environmental Criteria (CAM) are regulations for public procurement, also known as Green Public Procurement (GPP), which promote eco-friendly solutions and products. With D.M. n.256 of 23/06/2022, the CAM Report is required to demonstrate adherence to the CAM, focusing on the sustainability of the product life cycle.
Compliance with the CAM is verified through an approach that considers the content of recycled materials, emissions, and sustainable waste management, reinforcing the circular economy. The CAM Report, in addition to certifying compliance with environmental requirements, must include details on construction materials and related certifications.
Certificates such as “Made Green in Italy” and “Plastica Seconda Vita – Second Life Plastic” are recognized for CAM compliance, guaranteeing sustainable practices and attention to the product life cycle. The presence of such certifications in the CAM Report facilitates the environmental compliance evaluation process.
