The <a href=\"https:\/\/environment.ec.europa.eu\/topics\/waste-and-recycling\/packaging-waste\/packaging-packaging-waste-regulation_en\">new regulation<\/a> aims to reduce generated waste by focusing on three main targets: minimizing materials through design, encouraging reuse, and increasing the percentage of recycled packaging by optimizing waste separation. These elements are essential for protecting natural resources.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:28px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1789ed68cf25dd74cc3cd420d4e4ac78\"><strong>KEY CHANGES AND 2030 TARGETS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>The primary objective is to reduce per capita packaging waste by 15% by 2040 compared to 2018. Key directives include weight reduction and increased reuse starting January 1, 2030, for large household appliances, take-away food, and e-commerce. Furthermore, from 2030, minimum recycled plastic content levels will increase: 30% for contact-sensitive PET, 10% for other sensitive plastics, 30% for single-use bottles, and 35% for other packaging. Certain types of single-use packaging will be banned, such as portion packs in restaurants, fresh fruit packaging, and miniature toiletries in hotels.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:28px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-045a02a4dd68f2219b17708fbe43d816\"><strong>BUSINESS IMPACT AND OPPORTUNITIES<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>Design will follow standardized formats and universal labeling across the EU. Since fragmented regulations among Member States created market barriers, the PPWR plays a key role in harmonizing the sector. To help companies seize these opportunities and navigate the change, ECM is available to analyze the documentation provided, supporting the path toward voluntary certification.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The PPWR, published in the Official Journal on January 22, 2025, establishes requirements for the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13943,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The PPWR Regulation 2025: New Targets for Packaging - Ente Certificazione Macchine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The PPWR, published in the Official Journal on January 22, 2025, establishes requirements for the entire lifecycle of packaging.
