Will packaging purchased before the start of the PPWR application require new compliance documents?


Generally, no.

If the packaging was legally placed on the European Union market before the start of the PPWR application, there is no need to retroactively prepare new PPWR-mandated compliance documents simply because most of the new regulation's requirements begin to apply from August 12, 2026.

This means that you can continue to use and sell SUPERBOX packaging purchased before this date until your current stock is exhausted.

If your customers or trading partners request additional information regarding the packaging composition or its regulatory compliance, please contact the SUPERBOX team. We will help you assess the situation and inform you about the specific documents we can provide based on the particular packaging.
