VANCOUVER, BC and FRANKFURT, Germany, Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – GreenCore Solutions Corp. (the “Company”) today announced the European launch of its TreeFree Passport® certification and transparency system, now live on every TreeFree Diaper® sold under the Company’s regional private-label family:
🇫🇷 TreeFree Couche™ (France) 🇩🇪 TreeFree Windel™ (Germany) 🇪🇸 TreeFree Pañal™ (Spain) 🇸🇪 TreeFree Blöja™ (Sweden) 🇬🇧 TreeFree Nappy™ (United Kingdom).

The TreeFree Passport® programme transforms ESG compliance from a cost centre into a value-creating system. Each TreeFree Diaper® pack now carries a prominent badge and a QR-enabled verification code linking directly to certified impact data — confirming 100% tree-free composition, EU deforestation-free compliance, and SGS-verified performance.

TreeFree Passport® — Overview

  1. Badge on Packaging
    Every TreeFree Diaper® pack now displays the TreeFree Passport® Certified badge.
    The integrated QR code connects to verified data proving the product is tree-free, SGS-tested, and fully EU-compliant.
    This transforms packaging into a live certificate of performance and transparency, instantly accessible to consumers, auditors and retailers.
  2. Integration
    Replaces traditional tree-fibre certification costs and channels value directly into the TreeFree Passport® system for verified PATH+ partners.
  3. How It Works
    TreeFree Passport® integrates seamlessly into existing OEM-C manufacturing operations through three automated layers:
  • Verification Layer: SGS confirms 100% tree-free composition and embeds the report into each batch’s digital record.
  • Transparency & Trust: consumers scan the QR to view verified CO₂, water and tree-savings data.
  • Zero Friction: no new audits, systems or line re-tooling required — verification runs automatically per batch.

Result:
Every nappy leaves the production line already proven sustainable, traceable and profitable.

“TreeFree Passport® proves that compliance can pay. By embedding real ESG data into every pack, we’ve built a system where sustainability verifies itself — and partners profit from doing the right thing,” said Matthew Keddy, CEO of GreenCore Solutions Corp. “For our retail TreeFree Diaper® customers — and supporting 🇫🇷 TreeFree Couche™ (France), 🇩🇪 TreeFree Windel™ (Germany), 🇪🇸 TreeFree Pañal™ (Spain), 🇸🇪 TreeFree Blöja™ (Sweden) and 🇬🇧 TreeFree Nappy™ (United Kingdom) — TreeFree Passport® streamlines ESG compliance and reporting at scale.”
