Increasing customer expectations and PPWR complexity exposes the limits of manual processes
Large volumes of packaging data is often collected manually
Sustainability, quality and procurement teams spend significant time gathering and analysing packaging specifications from suppliers.
Scattered documentation across different systems
Certificates of conformity (CoC), declarations of compliance (DoC), material specifications, and sustainability data are often stored across ERP systems, emails, spreadsheets, and different departments, making updates costly and limits visibility between teams.
Evolving regulations are difficult to keep up with
New regulations and evolving requirements for recyclability, recycled content, and labelling, requires teams to continually revise packaging data and supporting documents to stay compliant.
Complex packaging specifications require in-depth data management
Collecting, verifying, and updating packaging specifications, material certifications, and sustainability metrics from multiple suppliers adds administrative workload and increases the risk of errors and non-compliance.

questions
Answers to the most asked questions
When do we need to have everything ready and what are the key deadlines?
The critical compliance date is August 12, 2026. From this date forward, all packaging placed on the EU market must be compliant with PPWR requirements
How do we structure and store packaging data to prove compliance?
You need to create a comprehensive packaging inventory that maps each final product to its components and layers.
The data structure should include:
Final packaging unit
Individual components
Material layers within each component
Supplier information for each component
All compliance data fields per component
What data do we need to collect from suppliers to comply with PPWR?
For the August 2026 deadline, depending on your role you must collect and verify:
PFAS limits
Heavy metals and analysis
Technical packaging specifications
Contact sensitivity
Beyond 2026, additional requirements include recyclability scores (by 2030) and more detailed component-level data
What role do we have under the PPWR and what does that mean for our obligations?
Your role under PPWR depends on your position in the supply chain and determines your specific obligations. There are three main roles:
Manufacturer: If you create the final packaging unit that consumers buy (including private label products), you must collect all packaging information and create a declaration of conformity
Producer: If you put the product on the market for the first time in a specific country, you are responsible for paying EPR fees
Distributor: If you only distribute products without modifying packaging, your obligations differ
