PPWR Compliance Assessment

Is your packaging ready for August 2026?

The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) applies from 12 August 2026. Every company placing packaged products on the EU market — regardless of size — must comply. Most SMEs are underprepared.

What changes with the PPWR:

​​

  • All packaging must meet new recyclability requirements

  • Void fill in e-commerce parcels cannot exceed 40% of package volume

  • New labelling and material composition rules apply from day one

  • Extended Producer Responsibility obligations expand across all packaging types

  • Recycled content targets for plastic packaging come into force progressively through 2030

What we Assess

Cogton conducts a structured packaging audit against PPWR requirements, covering:

  • Recyclability of your current packaging formats

  • Space efficiency and void fill ratios

  • Material composition and labelling compliance

  • EPR registration status and reporting obligations

  • Gap analysis against 2026, 2028, and 2030 deadlines
