Decoding the Future of EU’s Packaging with PPWR Nov 1, 2024
Decoding the Future of EU’s Packaging with PPWRStaying Ahead of the Curve to Maintain CompetitivenessSometime between the end of 2025 or the beginning of 2026, the Packaging and Packing Waste Regulation or PPWR will be fully implemented as a standardized legal framework using through Europe. How the PPWR would revolutionize the existing packaging framework in Europe?With the shift from an EU directive to a full-blown EU regulation, the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) will kick in automatically across all EU nations—no need for individual countries to draft their own laws. This means a consistent set of rules for everyone, making it easier to navigate the market.For business, the new regulation (PPWR) introduces signifi cant changes; raising recycling targets to promote a closed-loop system. In this system, materials are continuously reused rather than discarded, reducing reliance on new natural resources and supporting environmental sustainability. The future of packaging just got a lot greener—and businesses need to be ready to embrace the change! How a company prepare to meet key requirements?As strict targets for the reduction of packaging waste will be introduced rising to at least 15% by 2040, the new regulations will be strictly applied to packaging design, material selection and recyclability to all stakeholders which are material suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, producers, importers and fulfillment service providers. Here are some tips how you may stay ahead of the new regulation and remain competitive in the market.Recycle Ability:Under the PPWR, packaging must be designed with recyclability in mind. By 2030, all packaging will need to meet recyclability standards: Grade A (≥95% recyclable), Grade B (≥80%), or Grade C (≥70%), with anything below 70% deemed non-recyclable. And by 2038, only packaging with Grade A or B will be allowed on the market. To stay ahead, it's crucial for companies to carefully consider packaging design and material choices. Opting for mono-materials, reducing plastic use, and selecting adhesives that can easily detach from substrates are just a few ways to help meet these targets and boost sustainability.Reduce Unnecessary Packaging:The PPWR aims to reduce unnecessary packaging by encouraging businesses to use right-sized, efficient designs that minimize waste. By cutting excess packaging, companies can reduce costs and meet the demand for sustainable solutions, staying competitive in a greener market.
