Compliance data
Compliance field | Explainer | Official source |
Biobased content | The total percentage of packaging material derived from renewable biological sources (e.g. plant-based polymers or paper fibres), expressed as a share of total component weight. T | |
Compostability category | Classification of the packaging based on the composting environment under which it meets the requirements of PPWR Article 9 and Annex III. Categories correspond to recognized standards for industrial (EN 13432 / EN 14995) or home composting (e.g. EN 17427, ISO 17088). | |
Compostability certificate or standard | Reference to the compostability standard applied for verifying compliance under the PPWR. Includes recognized standards such as EN 13432, EN 14995, ISO 17088, or equivalent national standards. | |
Disposal instructions provided | Indicates whether disposal or recycling instructions are available to end users in accordance with ESPR / DPP requirements (Article 8, Annex II). Instructions for correct disposal or recycling route, in accordance with ESPR / DPP requirements. | |
EU Declaration of Conformity (DoC) available | Indicates whether a signed Declaration of Conformity exists for this packaging unit or type. | |
Made from monomaterial | Indicates whether the packaging is made entirely from a single material type, allowing for classification as “single-material packaging”. Single-material packaging supports higher recyclability performance (Grade A–B). | |
Minimisation description | Description or reference to documentation proving compliance with packaging minimisation requirements, such as design reports, packaging assessments, or empty-space ratio calculations. | |
Plastic-free | Confirms that the packaging contains no plastics, including polymer-based coatings, linings, or adhesives, as defined under EU law (Regulation (EU) 10/2011 and Directive (EU) 2019/904). | |
Plastic-free evidence | Evidence supporting the plastic-free claim, such as a supplier declaration, lab test, or accredited certification confirming absence of plastics as defined under EU law. | |
Recyclability assessment | Reference to the methodology or standard used to assess the recyclability of the packaging, in line with PPWR design-for-recycling requirements. | |
Recyclability grade | Indicates the recyclability performance of the packaging based on its material and design. Classes A–C follow the criteria defined in the PPWR and recognized design-for-recycling methodologies such as RecyClass or CEFLEX. | |
Recycled content (Post industrial) | Percentage of recycled content derived from post-industrial sources such as production scrap or factory waste. Used to report recycled input according to PPWR requirements. | |
Recycled content (Post-consumer) | Percentage of recycled content originating from post-consumer sources, i.e. materials recovered after end-user use. Required for plastic packaging as defined in Annex II of the PPWR. | |
Recycled content certificate or standard | Certificate or declaration confirming the presence of recycled content in the packaging material. | |
Reuse cycles | Minimum number of reuse cycles the packaging is designed to withstand. | |
Reuse system description | Description of the system enabling reuse (e.g., deposit-return scheme, refill logistics, pool system) aligned with PPWR Article 1 | |
Substances of concern - Analytical or test method reference | Reference to the laboratory test, certificate, or analytical standard used to verify hazardous-substance concentrations. | |
Substances of concern - Heavy metals concentration | Total concentration (mg/kg) of regulated heavy metals — lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and hexavalent chromium (Cr VI). Must not exceed the maximum limits under PPWR Article 5. | |
Substances of concern - PFAS concentration | Total concentration of PFAS expressed in parts per billion (ppb). Used to demonstrate compliance with PPWR Article 5 restrictions for food-contact packaging. | |
Substances of concern - Other | Name of the hazardous substance identified under REACH or DPP registry. Used when a regulated substance other than PFAS or heavy metals is present. |
