Who PPWR Copilot is for
Every business placing packaged goods on the EU market faces PPWR, but the practical work changes depending on what you sell. Start with the route closest to your team.
Selling packaged apparel into the EU? Packaging compliance and product-EPR workstreams can overlap quickly. PPWR Copilot helps organise the packaging side so your team can see what needs review.
See apparel demoMulti-material packaging means different component data, labelling checks and country-specific recycling information. PPWR Copilot helps turn that into structured documentation.
See FMCG demoSelling across Amazon or other EU marketplaces? Keep packaging specs, material codes, country requirements and supporting documentation easier to find when compliance questions come up.
See marketplace demoDesigning or producing packaging for EU-facing clients? Generate per-SKU documentation your clients can hand to their legal, compliance and EPR partners before artwork is finalised.
See agency demoWhy this gets hard
Most teams are not struggling because they lack effort. They are struggling because packaging data, supplier inputs, country rules and artwork decisions are spread across different people, files and systems.
Dimensions, materials, components, weights and market lists often live in separate spreadsheets, supplier emails or artwork briefs. PPWR Copilot helps bring the packaging-side inputs into one structured workflow.
PPWR creates an EU-wide framework, but national labelling and EPR requirements still matter. France, Italy, Spain, Germany and other markets can each require different checks before packaging goes live.
Teams often need to chase missing material, component or weight information before they can review a packaging format properly. PPWR Copilot helps your team see which packaging-side inputs need to be captured.
PPWR is in force, but detailed implementing measures, harmonised labelling rules and market practice will continue to develop. Outputs should be reviewed with legal, compliance and EPR partners before final decisions.
France, Italy, Spain, Germany, and Ireland each have different requirements. PPWR Copilot helps you navigate them all.
Requirements vary by country and include both on-pack labelling and off-pack registration obligations. Learn more →

Key compliance dates you need to know. August 12, 2026 is the general application date for most requirements.
Everything you need to know about PPWR compliance and our platform.
The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) is EU legislation setting new environmental standards for all packaging placed on the EU market. Most core obligations start applying from 12 August 2026, with additional measures (recyclability, recycled content, reuse) phased in afterwards. It applies to manufacturers, importers and distributors selling packaged products across the EU. The UK is following its own path via the Environment Act and related regulations.
Required markings depend on your materials, components and target markets. Material identification codes are based on Decision 97/129/EC (e.g. PAP 21, PET 01, PP 05). Several countries (such as France, Italy and Spain) layer on their own recycling and collection symbols and wording. PPWR Copilot helps you map each component to material codes and shows you which types of symbols and disposal text are typically required in each market, so your designers and compliance partners can finalise the artwork.
Void-space = (Package Volume – Product Volume) / Package Volume × 100. PPWR Article 24 sets different rules by packaging category: grouped, transport and e-commerce packaging have a 50% maximum (from 2030); sales packaging must be "minimum necessary" with no fixed percentage. PPWR Copilot runs category-aware calculations, so you can quickly flag SKUs that may need design changes.
Our dossiers are structured to support Amazon's EU packaging compliance workflows: they include packaging specs, material codes, void-space calculations and country-by-country labelling information in one place. However, we cannot guarantee acceptance by Amazon, customs or any third party. Final decisions always rest with the platforms and authorities. PPWR Copilot's role is to organise your data and documentation so you can respond quickly and consistently.
