What EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (EU) 2025/40 (PPWR) requires
EU Regulation (EU) 2025/40 (the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation PPWR) replaces Directive 94/62/EC with a comprehensive framework for packaging placed on the EU market. PPWR sets recyclability requirements (all packaging recyclable by 2030 with grade A/B/C performance grades) minimum recycled content (e.g., 30% rPET in plastic beverage bottles by 2030) packaging reduction targets (15% per capita by 2040) re-use targets by sector ban on certain single-use packaging formats (e.g., hotel mini toiletries from 2030 fruit/vegetable wrapping under 1.5kg in retail) and deposit-return scheme (DRS) for single-use plastic bottles and aluminium cans (90% separate collection by 2029).
