EU publishes new packaging rules guidelines for PPWR

The European Commission published guidelines on the implementation of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) to facilitate the uniform application of the new packaging rules across the EU and simplify compliance for economic actors and Member States.

 

On average, in 2023, each European generated 178kg of packaging waste. Without intervention, total packaging waste could further rise by 19% by 2030 compared to 2018 levels, while plastic waste could rise by as much as 46%. At the same time, the packaging industry faces significant administrative burdens as a result of divergent national packaging rules across Member States.

 

The full application of the PPWR will contribute to a more sustainable and competitive packaging sector across the EU and to strengthening the Single Market for packaging through common rules.

 

The guidance document presented by the Commission clarifies rules where the PPWR need further interpretation and areas where stakeholders have requested assistance. For instance, it clarifies when a company is considered manufacturer or producer, as well as which items are considered packaging under the PPWR.

 

This document also spells out the restrictions on single-use packaging, enforcement of the PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) restriction in food contact packaging, and the application of re-use targets.

 

In addition, it provides guidance on how to apply extended producer responsibility for packaging and on the obligation to set up deposit and return systems.

 

Following, several delegated and implementing acts are being prepared, including on harmonized registration and reporting formats for the extended producer responsibility, labelling for waste sorting by consumers, recycled content in plastic packaging, and recyclability criteria. These are being prepared in close cooperation with Member States, stakeholders and trading partners.
