 A key component         of the CPG program is EPA's list of designated products and         the accompanying recycled-content recommendations. EPA has already designated         or is proposing to designate the products listed below. They are grouped         into 8 catagories: 
- Construction Products 
- Landscaping Products
- Nonpaper Office Products
-  Paper and Paper Products
-  Park and Recreation Products 
- Transportation Products 
-  Vehicular Products
-  Miscellaneous Products

EPA also published final or proposed recycled-content recommendations         for each item. All proposals, designations, and recommendations are published         in the *Federal Register*.

This Web site contains a brief description for each of the         designated products listed below. You also can view EPA's recommended         recycled-content ranges and access a Supplier         Database         which includes manufacturers, vendors, and suppliers for each item.
