The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) establishes new packaging compliance standards which manufacturers must follow when they operate in European markets. Starting August 2026, organizations that introduce packaging to the EU market must adhere to mandatory standards which cover recyclability, hazardous substances, product reuse, labeling, and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) reporting requirements.

Enterprise manufacturers face greater challenges than only redesigning their packaging. The PPWR regulation creates operational demands which require organizations to gather supplier data, achieve complete visibility of their bill of materials, maintain documentation for audits, track per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and other materials, and meet requirements for multiple jurisdictions. The regulation’s standardized enforcement approach will not allow organizations to effectively expand their operations which depend on their current manual processes and separated compliance systems.

Organizations that create a centralized system for packaging compliance information, use automated systems for supplier document management, and adopt AI-based systems for regulatory supervision will achieve better results in compliance risk reduction, supply chain interruption avoidance, and market access maintenance across EU member states.

Certivo operates as an AI-based compliance management system which assists manufacturers in their packaging compliance processes through automated supplier communication and regulatory intelligence and ongoing audit preparation throughout their international business activities.
