	107	+Note that a consequence of this is, due to the fact that practically all card materials contain additives like color pigments and modifiers to change physical and chemical characteristics and improve behaviour of the material during processing, that claims will from 2025 onwards normally not mention "100 %" anymore, because cards and the plastic films cards are made of do not usually consist of 100 % of one specific material, but are almost always a mix of different materials, with the dominant one providing the name. Additives and color pigments are usually virgin materials and hence do not count as part of the sustainable material content.
