When does PPWR take effect?

PPWR (Regulation (EU) 2025/40) entered into force on February 11, 2025. The majority of its substantive obligations apply from August 12, 2026, with recycled-content and reuse targets phasing in further between 2030 and 2040.

Does PPWR apply to clothing and apparel packaging?

Yes. PPWR covers all packaging placed on the EU market regardless of sector. Garment polybags, mailer boxes, hangtags, tissue paper, and e-commerce void fill all fall within scope for brands and manufacturers exporting apparel to Europe.

What recycled content is required for plastic packaging under PPWR?

From 2030, plastic packaging must contain minimum recycled content: 35% for non-food-contact plastic packaging and 10% for food-contact-sensitive plastic packaging (rising to 35% by 2040 for contact-sensitive and 65% by 2040 for non-contact).

What are the PFAS restrictions in PPWR?

From August 12, 2026, food-contact packaging must not contain PFAS above 25 ppb for total PFAS or 250 ppb for total fluorinated compounds. This is stricter than the US TPCH model and affects grease-resistant coatings on paper packaging.

Kuyini i-PPWR? Umhlahlandlela Owusizo Womthetho Wokupakisha we-EU ka-2026 Wemikhiqizo Yezingubo

Kushicilelwe:4 Agasti 2026 Isigaba:Ukuthobela imithetho kanye nokusimama Izithameli:Imikhiqizo Yezingubo, Abathumeli Bezingubo, Abathengi Bezingubo Zangaphandle Nezokusebenza Isifunda:iyuniyani yase-Europe

I-EUUmthetho Wokupakishwa Nokupakishwa Kwemfucuza (PPWR)Ukuguqulwa okubaluleke kakhulu komthetho wokupakisha waseYurophu eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu edlule. Kubakhiqizi bezingubo, imikhiqizo yezingubo zangaphandle, kanye nabathumeli bezingubo zomsebenzi abathumela eYurophu, kushintsha indlela ama-polybag, amabhokisi eposi, ama-hangtag, kanye nama-filler e-commerce okumele aklanywe ngayo. Imithetho eminingi isebenza kusukela12 Agasti 2026Lo mhlahlandlela uchaza ukuthi kusho ukuthini i-PPWR empeleni nokuthi ungayigcina kanjani imikhiqizo yakho emashalofini e-EU.

Kuyini i-PPWR? (Incazelo)

I-PPWR imele uMthethonqubo Wokupakishwa Nokupakishwa Kwemfucuza—Umthethonqubo (i-EU) 2025/40Ithatha indawo ye-Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive endala (PPWD, 94/62/EC) ngomthetho obopha ngqo osebenza ngokufanayo kuwo wonke amazwe angamalungu e-EU angu-27.

Ukushintsha kusuka "esiqondisweni" kuya "esiqondisweni" kubalulekile. Isiqondiso sivumela izwe ngalinye ukuthi libhale umthetho walo kazwelonke; umthetho ngumthetho we-EU kusukela osukwini lokuqala, osusa imigqa yemithetho yokupakisha kazwelonke ehlukene okwakudingeka ukuthi abathumeli bamazwe ngamazwe bayihambise ngaphambilini.

Impendulo esheshayo:I-PPWR ngumthetho obophayo we-EU wokunciphisa imfucuza yokupakisha, ukuphoqelela okuqukethwe okuphinde kusetshenziswe emaphaketheni epulasitiki, ukuvimbela izinto eziyingozi njenge-PFAS emaphaketheni okuxhumana nokudla, kanye nokudinga ukupakisha okungasetshenziswa kabusha ngokwedizayini kuyo yonke imikhakha - kufaka phakathi nezingubo.

Kungani i-PPWR Ibalulekile Kwabathumeli Bezingubo Ngaphandle

Ukupakisha akuseyona nje igobolondo elivikelayo lokuthuthwa. Ngaphansi kwe-PPWR, isikhwama se-polybag esizungeze ijazi elifudumele, i-poiler yekhadibhodi yevesti elifudumele, kanye nethishu ese-izingubo ezifudumele ezenziwe ngokwezifisokonke ukuthunyelwa kubalwa "njengokupakishwa" ngaphansi komthetho we-EU — futhi konke kumele kuhambisane.

Kumabhrendi athola imikhiqizo evela e-Asia, umthelela osebenzayo ukabili: (1) izinto zokupakisha kumele zihlangabezane nemithetho emisha yokwakheka kanye nokusetshenziswa kabusha, kanye (2) uchungechunge lwakho lokuhlinzeka kumele lukhiqize imibhalo yokuthobela imithetho eqinisekisiwe. Ukupakisha okungahambisani nemithetho kungavimba ukufinyelela emakethe emngceleni noma kubangele izinhlawulo ezivela ezikhulwini zokuqapha imakethe ze-EU.

Isikhathi Sesikhathi Se-PPWR: Lapho Umthetho Ngamunye Usebenza

11 kuNhlolanja 2025

I-PPWR iqala ukusebenza. Ukubala phansi kuya ekusetshenzisweni okubalulekile kuyaqala.

12 Agasti 2026

Izibopho eziyinhloko ziyasebenza: Ukuvinjelwa kwe-PFAS ekupakishweni kokudla, imikhawulo kwezinye izinhlobo zepulasitiki ezisetshenziswa kanye, kanye nokulindelwa kokuklama ukuphinda kusetshenziswe kuqala ukuphoqelelwa.

Januwari 1, 2030

Imithetho embalwa yokuqukethwe okuphinde kwasetshenziswa iqala ukusebenza; konke ukupakisha kumele kuphinde kwasetshenziswa; kusebenza umkhawulo wesikhala esingenalutho kwezentengiselwano ze-e.

2035 kanye no-2040

Amaphesenti okuqukethwe okuphinde kwasetshenziswa ayanda kakhulu (afinyelela ku-65% ekupakishweni kwepulasitiki okungathintani ngo-2040).

Izinhloso Zokuqukethwe Okusetshenziswe Kabusha: Izinombolo Ezibalulekile

Ngokupakishwa kwepulasitiki — okuhlanganisa iningi lezikhwama zezingubo kanye namafilimu amaningi eposi — amasethi e-PPWR abophezela imikhawulo yokuqukethwe okusetshenziswe kabusha okungenani:

Ukupakisha kwepulasitiki okungathintani nokudla:Okuqukethwe okusetshenziswe kabusha okungu-35% kusukela ngo-2030, okukhuphukela ku-65% ngo-2040.
Ukupakishwa kwepulasitiki okuthinta ukudla:Okuqukethwe okusetshenziswe kabusha okungu-10% kusukela ngo-2030, okukhuphukela ku-35% ngo-2040.

Kumabhrendi ezingubo, lokhu kusho isikhwama se-polybag esicacile esivikelaijakethi efudumelekufanele ngabe isivele isiya ku-LDPE ephinde yasetshenziswa (rLDPE). Ubufakazi obubhaliwe bokuthi imvelaphi ephinde yasetshenziswa — ngezitifiketi zomhlinzeki kanye nokuhlolwa komuntu wesithathu — buzobaluleka.

I-PFAS: Ukuvinjelwa Kokumboza Okungafanele Ungakunaki

Kusukela ngomhlaka-12 Agasti 2026, ukupakishwa kokudla akufanele kube ne-PFAS ngenhlaI-PFAS ephelele engu-25 ppb or Amakhemikhali aphelele e-fluorine angu-250 ppb. Lo mkhawulo uqinile kunemodeli ye-US TPCH futhi uthinta ngqo ukupakishwa kwephepha noma kwebhodi okunezembozo ezingangeni mafutha/amanzi — ezifanele uphawuizingubo zomsebenzi ezenziwe ngokwezifisoamabhokisi okuthengisa kanye nokupakishwa kokukhangisa okuseduze nokudla.

Indlela Abakhiqizi Bezingubo Okufanele Baphendule Ngayo

Ukuze uthole imininingwane ebophayo — kufaka phakathi izincazelo zokupakisha, ukubalwa kokuqukethwe okuphinde kwasetshenziswa, kanye nemikhawulo ye-PFAS — izinhlobo kufanele zithintane neKhomishini yaseYurophuidokhumenti yesiqondiso esisemthethweni se-PPWR (C(2026)3702), eyanyatheliswa ukusiza abasebenza kwezomnotho ukuthi basebenzise imithetho ngendlela efanayo kuwo wonke amazwe angamalungu angu-27.

1. Hlola Ukupakishwa Kwakho Kwamanje

Bhala zonke izingxenye zokupakisha — ama-polybag, ama-mailer, ama-hangtag, izicubu, i-tape, ukugcwalisa okungenalutho — bese uhlola ukwakheka kwezinto, ukuphinde kusetshenziswe, kanye nobufakazi bokuthi okuqukethwe kusetshenziswe kabusha.

2. Shintshela kumafilimu e-Mono-Material, Content-Content Recycled

Shintsha amaphakethe ezinto ezixubile ngamafilimu e-single-polymer (mono-PE noma mono-PP) aqukethe i-resin evuselelwe eqinisekisiwe. Imiklamo ye-mono-material kulula kakhulu ukuyiphinda isetshenziswe ngaphansi kokuhlolwa kwe-PPWR kokusetshenziswa kabusha.

3. Nciphisa Isikhala Esingenalutho kanye Nezigcwalisi

Njengoba isivalo sesikhala esingenalutho esingu-50% sifika ngo-2030, lungisa amabhokisi akho eposi manje. Susa izicubu ezingadingekile kanye nemicamelo yomoya yepulasitiki lapho iposi efakiwe yanele khona.

4. Yakha Umzila Wemibhalo

Gcina izitifiketi zokuqukethwe okusetshenziswe kabusha, imibiko yokuhlolwa kwe-heavy-metal, kanye namaphepha edatha yokuphepha kwezinto. Ukuphoqelelwa kwe-PPWR kuqhutshwa yimibhalo; kumele ufakazele ukuthobela umthetho uma ucela.

5. Bhalisela i-EPR kuma-Target Markets

Izwe ngalinye le-EU lisebenzisa uhlelo lwalo lomthwalo wemfanelo wabakhiqizi abanwetshiwe. Imikhiqizo ebeka izimpahla ezipakishiwe emakethe kumele ibhalise futhi ibike inani lokupakisha ngokwesifundazwe ngasinye.

6. Bandakanya Umlingani Wakho we-OEM/ODM Kusenesikhathi

Umlingani wokukhiqiza osebenzayo angaklama kabusha ukupakisha njengengxenye yomjikelezo wokuthuthukiswa komkhiqizo. Kwa-PASSION OUTERWEAR, inkampani yethuI-OEM/ODMamaqembu ahlola ukuhambisana nokupakishwa kanye nemininingwane yezingubo ukuze ukuhambisana kwakhelwe ngaphakathi, hhayi ukuboshwa.

Iphuzu elibalulekile:I-PPWR ivuza imikhiqizo ephatha ukupakisha njengesinqumo sokuklama, hhayi into ecatshangelwe kamuva. Abathuthukisi bokuqala bathola ukufinyelela okubushelelezi emakethe ye-EU kanye nokuxoxa izindaba eziqinile zokuzinza nabathengi be-B2B.

imibuzo ejwayelekile ukubuzwa

I-PPWR iqala nini ukusebenza?

I-PPWR (Umthethonqubo (EU) 2025/40) yaqala ukusebenza ngomhlaka-11 kuNhlolanja 2025. Iningi lezibopho zayo ezibalulekile lisebenza kusukela ngomhlaka-12 kuNcwaba 2026, kanti izinhloso zokuqukethwe okuphinde kwasetshenziswa kanye nokusetshenziswa kabusha zizoqhubeka phakathi kuka-2030 no-2040.

Ingabe i-PPWR iyasebenza ekupakisheni izingubo nezingubo?

Yebo. I-PPWR ihlanganisa konke ukupakisha okubekwe emakethe ye-EU kungakhathaliseki ukuthi umkhakha unjani.
