PPWR 2026: The practical guide for procurement and compliance

The new EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) has applied since August 12, 2026. For industrial companies, it brings far-reaching changes. New responsibilities along the supply chain, additional documentation obligations and extensive proof requirements pose new challenges, particularly for procurement.

In our conversations with industrial companies, it is above all the practical implementation that raises many questions. Who bears which responsibility? Which documentation has to be obtained from suppliers? And which deadlines do companies need to observe in the coming years?

To provide guidance, we have developed a practical guide to the PPWR together with the commercial law firm Luther. In it, we classify the most important regulatory requirements, explain the new roles and responsibilities and show how companies can approach implementation in a structured way.

Anyone who wants to take a closer look at the PPWR requirements will find further insights in our previous webinars:
