June 5, 2025 (press release) –
EUROPEN has released a new interactive guidebook designed to help businesses navigate the evolving requirements of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). Whether companies are starting to review the Regulation or already adapting to the upcoming changes, this practical tool provides a structured overview of the regulatory landscape and its implications for the packaging value chain.
"Navigating the requirements of the PPWR can be a complex task. With the PPWR Guidebook, we aim to help companies gain a clear understanding of their obligations—tailored to their specific sector and products," as Francesca Stevens, the Secretary General of EUROPEN, states.
What the guide offers:
- A concise summary of the PPWR and its links to other key EU legislation
- An interactive questionnaire to help users assess how the regulation applies to their business
- A glossary of legal terms for quick reference
- Direct access to the PPWR text and related documentation
To support users in getting started, EUROPEN has also published a short explainer video. The video walks users through the key features of the tool and demonstrates how to complete the questionnaire step by step.
A useful starting point
The guidebook is intended to help companies better understand the PPWR. However, it does not replace legal counsel. While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the content, it may not address all individual cases or provide fully tailored solutions. Businesses are encouraged to consult the official legislation and seek legal advice where necessary.
To get the most accurate results, users should complete the questionnaire using product- or business-specific information.
