Recyclability of packaging

  • By 2035: recyclable at scale
  • the EPR (extended producer responsibility) fees are based on recyclability performance grades

Recycled packaging

  • Different binding targets related depending on the type of packaging
  • the EPR fees are based on the % of recycled content in packaging

Compostable packaging

  • Compostable plastics is mandatory only when it brings a clear benefit for the environment or for human health
  • Other plastic packaging should go into recycling processes with a design that ensures that it does not affect the recyclability of other waste streams
