Assessment of options for reinforcing the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive’s essential requirements and other measures to reduce the generation of packaging waste

EU 2023 - (Final report)

The Essential Requirements, which all packaging placed on the EU market needs to comply with, were first introduced in the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive (PPWD - Directive 94/62/EC), as defined in Article 9 and Annex II.

These requirements, and the associated harmonised standards, have not changed substantially since their introduction, and previous studies have identified the Essential Requirements as potentially requiring further attention to improve packaging design, particularly in relation to the lack of recyclability of many packaging formats. In addition, the policy landscape has evolved significantly since the PPWD first established the Requirements; the 2018 revision of the PPWD included, in addition to a revision of the recycling targets for packaging waste, a mandate for the Commission to examine “the feasibility of reinforcing the essential requirements with a view to, inter alia, improving design for reuse and promoting high quality recycling, as well as strengthening their enforcement.”

This study carried out an impact assessment of different options available to reinforce the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive’s Essential Requirements, and other measures to reduce the generation of packaging waste to transition to a low-carbon and circular economy.
