Toți producătorii, importatorii și distribuitorii de produse sunt afectați de noile reguli privind ambalajele - Economica.net

The new EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) introduces responsibilities for companies from the design and manufacturing stages of packaging. Starting August 12, 2026, businesses involved in packaging must comply with specific obligations. Companies need to identify their roles in the supply chain, as this determines their compliance responsibilities. They must also monitor packaging conditions, including materials and recyclability. The regulation emphasizes the importance of accurate documentation from suppliers to ensure compliance. Non-compliance can lead to legal consequences and operational disruptions. Companies should view PPWR as a governance framework rather than just environmental requirements, focusing on collaboration across departments to ensure compliance and minimize risks.
