Interzice UE baxurile de apă îmbuteliată? Ce spun, de fapt, noile reguli europene

Recent claims about the EU banning bottled water packs in August are misleading. The new Packaging Regulation aims to reduce waste and increase recycling, but does not prohibit these packs. Some restrictions will apply from August 2026, focusing on harmful substances and certain plastic packaging. Bottled water packs are likely to be exempt due to their necessity for safe transport. The European Commission will clarify the regulations by February 2027, but current claims about an immediate ban are unfounded.
