Watch webinar: New packaging rules and producer responsibility
The Danish Environmental Protection Agency has made a webinar available on the new requirements under the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation.
The webinar gives companies an introduction to the background and purpose of the regulation and explains several of the requirements that will be relevant for packaging placed on the market.
The webinar covers:
- Environmental requirements for packaging
- Maximum limits for certain substances in packaging
- Identification and labelling requirements
- Requirements for declarations of conformity
- Producer responsibility for packaging
- Changes to the placement of producer responsibility following the “unpacker rule”
- The definition of “end user”
- Clarification of producer responsibility for sales packaging and multipack packaging
The webinar is particularly relevant for companies that manufacture, import, distribute, fill, unpack or otherwise handle packaging, and for companies that need to understand how the new rules may affect their obligations.
The webinar is hosted by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency and can be watched on demand.
