In our live session, our Senior Consultant, Chiarina Darrah, took a deep dive into the PPWR to help you swiftly get to grips with the requirements and achieve compliance.
About the PPWR
The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) is live, and its provisions apply from mid-2026. This legislation paves the way for major changes regarding what kind of packaging can be placed on the EU market, as well as packaging waste management and prevention measures.
Businesses who tackle PPWR requirements early will be on the front foot, ahead of EU Member States taking ambitious action on reducing packaging waste to meet the impactful 15% reduction target by 2040.
