Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR)

As sustainability regulations evolve, businesses must adapt to the EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). With a focus on reducing waste and increasing recyclability, PPWR presents both challenges and opportunities for companies to enhance their supply chains and meet environmental targets.

What is PPWR?

The European Union Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) aims to reduce packaging pollution and promote a circular economy within the EU.

Did you know that the PPWR applies to all packaging products, including load carrier such as pallets and boxes? The regulation requires businesses to ensure that 40% of their transport packaging and load carrier are reusable by 2030 and 70% by 2040.

Choosing partners who offer packaging and logistics solutions that align with these new regulations is essential to achieving these goals.

How does it impact your supply chain?

  • PPWR affects all packaging and load carriers used by businesses.
  • If you're still using one-way pallets or non-reusable load carriers, your supply chain could face challenges in adapting to the new requirements, as these products may not meet PPWR standards.
  • Packaging and load carriers that doesn’t align with recyclability or reusability requirements will likely be phased out under the new regulation.

Now is the right time to future-proof your supply chain - with reusable concepts and partners who already offer sustainable solutions as standard.
