The New PPWR RulesMolded pulp packaging is a key solution for brand sustainability upgrades

From regulatory compliance to sustainable competitiveness

The European Union Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) entered into force in 2025 and will apply from August 12, 2026.

The new regulation looks beyond the materials used in packaging. It addresses the full lifecycle of packaging — from design and material use to recyclability, reuse, and waste management — encouraging companies to rethink how packaging is designed and produced.

For brands, sustainable packaging is no longer only an environmental issue. It is an important strategy for entering the European market, strengthening brand value, and building long-term competitiveness.

PPWR is redefining the future of packaging

Reduce unnecessary packaging

Optimize packaging structures and reduce material use to limit over-packaging and resource waste.

Improve packaging recyclability

Move packaging toward designs that are easier to recycle, sort, and reuse.

Reduce dependence on virgin resources

Use recycled and fiber materials together with material innovation to reduce reliance on virgin resources.

Advance the circular economy

Move packaging from single-use consumption toward recyclable and reusable circular models.

Why is molded pulp packaging becoming the new choice for brands?

As global businesses respond to plastic reduction and the circular economy, brands are looking for new packaging that combines product protection, functionality, and sustainability value.

Molded pulp packaging can use recycled paper fibers and structural design to create customized packaging solutions for different product requirements.

From electronic components, 3C products, and industrial goods to food, gift boxes, and consumer products, molded pulp packaging is more than an alternative to plastic — it can be an important part of a brand’s sustainability transition.
