Integrin PPWR

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, from supplier to market

Integrin checks your packaging against the PPWR before it is placed on the market.

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, Regulation (EU) 2025/40, applies directly in every Member State from 12 August 2026, and its requirements start on different dates. From 12 August 2026, packaging placed on the EU market must stay within the substance limits, be recyclable, carry the manufacturer's and importer's details and be covered by a declaration of conformity. The duties fall on the manufacturer, importer or distributor of each item of packaging.

How it works

From the supplier's declaration to the market

01

Packaging types and roles

Each packaging type holds its components, materials and weights, the heavy-metal and PFAS results, and the recyclability evidence. Integrin records the role on each item of packaging for a SKU, manufacturer, importer or distributor, and runs the checks that apply to that role.

02

Supplier declarations

Declarations of conformity and supplier information are recorded with their files, signed off by a second person, reviewed on a set date and superseded when a new version arrives. A supplier can be asked to answer directly.

Checks against the regulation

Integrin checks the substance limits and recyclability, the marking for the role, that a current declaration of conformity covers the packaging type, and the producer's EPR registration. Each check names the article it tests.

04

Release for market

Packaging is refused for market while any check fails, naming the article that failed. When every check passes, a second person approves the release, and every run of the checks is kept.
