Details

The new European Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) introduces comprehensive requirements for the design, labeling, sustainability, and placing on the market of packaging. The regulation affects manufacturers, importers, distributors, and other economic operators throughout the entire supply chain and establishes uniform standards within the European Union. Companies are thus faced with the challenge of understanding and implementing these new obligations and adapting their packaging and processes to meet the legal requirements in a timely manner.

Through this training, we aim to enable all affected companies to understand the requirements of the PPWR, identify the resulting obligations for their organization, and implement the legal requirements for packaging and packaging waste in compliance with the law. The training covers the key provisions of the regulation, the responsibilities of economic operators, and practical measures for complying with the new requirements.

  • Introduction to the New EU Packaging Regulation (PPWR)

  • Objectives, Scope, and Timeline of the PPWR

  • Definitions and Affected Economic Operators

  • Packaging Requirements

  • Labeling and Information Requirements

  • Record-keeping, Documentation, and Compliance Requirements

  • Obligations of Manufacturers, Importers, Distributors, and Fulfillment Service Providers

  • Interaction of the PPWR with existing national and European regulations
  • Practical Implementation of the Requirements Within the Company

Manufacturers, importers, distributors, and other economic operators who place packaging or packaged products on the market in the European Union and are required to comply with the PPWR. This is particularly relevant for employees in the areas of packaging development, product management, regulatory affairs, sustainability, quality management, purchasing, sales, logistics, and compliance.

Basic knowledge of packaging law, environmental compliance, or product regulation is a plus, but not required.

After completing the training, employees who work with packaging and packaged products will be able to understand the requirements of the PPWR, identify the obligations relevant to their company, and take appropriate measures to ensure compliance with the law. They will gain a thorough overview of the current requirements regarding packaging design, recyclability, the use of recycled materials, labeling, documentation, and the obligations of the various economic operators.

Through the practical approach to teaching the course content, participants can assess the impact of the PPWR on existing packaging and processes and plan necessary adjustments well in advance. This helps companies minimize regulatory risks, efficiently implement compliance requirements, and prepare for the phased introduction of the new European packaging regulations.

KFT has many years of experience in the field of regulatory affairs and the implementation of European legislation. As a result, participants benefit from practical examples and recommendations for implementing the PPWR requirements within their organizations.
