PPWR: Anticipating New Packaging Requirements

PPWR: 2030 starts today

Preparing for the PPWR starts today, not in 2030.

From 2030, the PPWR will introduce new requirements, particularly regarding recyclability and the incorporation of recycled material into plastic packaging.

For brands, the challenge is not simply to replace virgin resin with recycled resin. Technical performance, formula compatibility, aesthetic appearance, material availability and regulatory compliance must all be taken into account.

EMBELIA supports its clients in identifying solutions tailored to their projects, balancing regulatory developments, quality, functionality and design.
