How does the module help me create my Declaration of Conformity?

Data is consolidated to the different levels and the system allows you to create GAP analysis or generate a Declaration of Conformity based on all the consolidated data. Migration assessments generated through tools such as Packaging Migration Modeling can also support compliance documentation activities.

How does the module support me if I am not a manufacturer?

The system will allow you to consolidate your data and combine relevant information in a PPWR regulatory sheet.

Does the module help me with my packaging files?

The module combines data, documentation and conformity assessment, creating your packaging file in a system which allows you to share and control data between files.

What is the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR)?

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) is a European Union regulation designed to reduce packaging waste and support a circular economy. The regulation introduces requirements related to packaging design, recyclability, recycled content, labeling, reuse and waste reduction. PPWR applies to packaging placed on the EU market and aims to improve sustainability while creating harmonized packaging requirements across EU member states. Companies managing food contact materials may also benefit from Food Packaging Compliance solutions to support ongoing regulatory requirements.

What are the key requirements of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation?

The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation establishes requirements that affect the entire packaging lifecycle. Key provisions include packaging recyclability criteria, minimum recycled content targets for certain packaging formats, restrictions on excessive packaging, harmonized labeling requirements, reuse and refill obligations for specific sectors and reporting requirements. Companies must evaluate their packaging portfolios to ensure compliance with applicable PPWR requirements and implementation timelines. Packaging performance assessments may also include tools such as Packaging Migration Modeling to support technical evaluations.
