The PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation), which is formally expected to be decided in the EU Parliament at the end of 2024, is a regulation that sets new requirements to reduce and prevent the amount of packaging waste in the EU. The regulation shall, among other things, ensure that all packaging on the European market is recyclable or reusable.

In order for you as a producer to get a better understanding of what this means for you, we have recorded a short video to go through the goals of PPWR and summarise what the main changes will be and when they will be implemented.

Speakers:
Henrik Nilsson, Head of Business Development & Public Relations at Näringslivets Producentansvar

Agenda:

  • Why PPWR?
  • The goals of PPWR
  • The mail changes:
    • Design for recycling
    • Packaging minimisation
    • Minimum recycled content
    • New packaging prevention targets
    • Labeling
    • Reuse and refill
    • Definition of producer
    • Timeline for changes

The PPWR is expected to be formally decided at the end of 2024. We therefore reserve the right for any changes that may occur due to changes in the final legislation.
