Packaging Directive: Stakeholder workshops to support its revision

Consultancy firm Eunomia will be hosting six stakeholder workshops in June on its impact assessment study which supports the European Commission’s revision of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive (PPWD).

The workshops’ aim is to inform selected stakeholders about the latest results of the impact assessment and to gather feedback about the impact of the proposed measures.

The six stakeholder workshops deal with the following topics:

1. Compostable packaging

2. Recyclability

3. Underpinning measures, green public procurement, enforcement and hazardousness

4. Recycled content

5. Waste prevention

6. Reusable packaging

Landbell Group has registered and will participate in all of the workshops.

The European Commission is expected to release its proposal for a directive or regulation in the first quarter of 2022. It recently became public that the original timetable for publication at the end of 2021 cannot now be met (see previous article here)
