PPWR Workshop -
"The new European packaging law explained in a practical way"
The new packaging law, the PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation), will radically change the rules of the game when it comes to handling packaged products. From summer 2026 at the latest, packaging will have to be treated as an independent product, with strict requirements on sustainability, conformity, labeling and extended producer responsibility.
In this workshop, we will take a deep dive into the new PPWR – from critical definitions and the various roles to specific requirements and transition periods.
