The EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR) is here – what does it mean for your company? 📦
Since 12 August 2026, the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation has been applicable. The goal: less waste, maximum recyclability, and full transparency across the supply chain.
Key Focus Areas:
♻️ Recyclability: Packaging designed for effective recycling.
📦 Less Packaging: Reduction of unnecessary material & empty space.
🏷️ Harmonised EU Labels: Clear rules to make waste sorting easier.
📄 Documentation: Material data and compliance documents are becoming essential.
👉 Now is the time to prepare! Review your packaging materials, data, and compliance documents early.
