🇪🇺 European Commission due to adopt implementing act on PCR content calculation methodology
31 Dec · European Union · Confidence: Secondary (authoritative)
What happens
Under Article 7(8) of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). The methodology will determine whether post-consumer recycled material (PCR) produced in China can count towards EU recycled content targets. Until the methodology is published, no commitment should be made that China-produced PCR will count towards EU targets.
What to do
Packaging suppliers and brands should track the implementing act and refrain from making commitments on this point until the methodology is published.
