PPWR Timeline

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) will not apply all at once. Different obligations will take effect in phases over the coming years. At the same time, a significant part of the regulation still needs to be further defined through secondary legislation.

What to expect, year by year

To provide a clear overview, we have brought all key deadlines together in one timeline. For each year, you can see:

  • which obligations take effect;
  • which changes businesses need to prepare for;
  • which secondary legislation is still expected.

This allows you to see at a glance what will change, when it will happen and which steps already require your attention.
