output volume does not exceed available certified input (from transaction
certificates) after factoring in production losses at site level. In order to
maintained full chain of custody, detailed records or systems are needed which
identify which inputs were used in the production of a given output product On a
high level, the volume reconciliation formula looks like this

[Link] and Mixing
Blending refers to combining raw materials of different types (e.g. cotton with
polyester), while mixing refers to combining raw materials of the same type with
different attributes (e.g. organic cotton with conventional cotton).
Some standards which use the CCS do not allow public-facing, product-related claims
or logo use when products contain claimed materials mixed with non-claimed materials
of the same type
Blending and mixing of claimed materials with non-claimed materials is allowed and
shall be managed at a batch level.
‘When blending and mixing claimed materials with non-claimed materials, or different
claimed materials with different percentages of certified content, the organization shall
prepare composition calculations which include the following:
Documentation of all input materials to the product or specified component resulting
from the blending or mixing, including their material, material composition, weight of
product used, and claim percentage.
Calculation of the percentage of claimed content and content per raw material based-on
the weight and claim percentage of each input along with a material composition test
report.
Consideration of loss factors per input material and product, and
Demonstration that the final calculated content is representative of the actual claimed
material present following processing.
