🌟 Did you see Defra's announcement last week? While mandatory labelling won't be included in the first stages of Extended Producer Responsibility for Packaging (pEPR), this is a temporary position and mandatory labelling will be included in future amendments to the pEPR legislation. Communicating with consumers 🛍️ through on-pack labelling 🏷️ is still super important for the success of pEPR.

What Are the Key Packaging Policies and Regulations to Watch in 2025? Part 2/2    The global packaging landscape is shifting rapidly as sustainability becomes a key priority. With new regulations like the European Union's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and expanded Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws in regions worldwide, businesses must adapt to meet these evolving standards. This two-part series explores these shifts.     In part one, we zoomed in on the PPWR. Now, in part two, we turn our focus to the global evolution of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws Here’s what to expect in 2025 and beyond:   #Nefab #SupplyChainManager #SupplyChains #Sustainability #GreenLogistics #PackagingRegulations 

The Government is currently consulting on changes to packaging regulations, with three options being proposed. Our partner Kaye Ho has been involved in industry discussions relating to the consultation and her sense is that Option 3 (Extended Responsibility Scheme) is the most popular within the industry at the moment. Check out our article for unpacking the options in more detail and the potential implications for the packaging of a wide variety of goods. #update #packagingregulations #consumerproducts #lawfirm #sustainability

Last week ended with some exciting news for UK #circularity — the full extended producer responsibility for packaging (#pEPR) regulations were officially laid in parliament 🏛 The finalised plans provide much-needed clarity on the #EPR rollout, which will unblock investment and preparation across the resource value chain 🔗 💡 Brands and packaging producers have concrete guidelines to help plan targeted investments in more sustainable product design — now, with economic incentives tied to #recyclability, it has never been more important to measure how products perform through data 👀 ♻️ The waste sector, which will play a pivotal role in enforcing EPR regulation, can continue preparing for sampling increases in more confidence. Along with recent changes to the #MF sampling requirements, clearer #EPR regulation will encourage more facilities to embrace automated sampling and reporting 🚀 Here’s what Harry Rhys Davies, who keeps an eye on policy at Greyparrot, had to say about the announcement: “Getting pEPR over line in the UK is a huge achievement, one which will pave the way for smarter, more responsible packaging waste practices that align us more closely with our European partners. We’ve already seen that this has been a tremendously successful model in other markets, encouraging brands to rethink packaging design for sustainability, as well as promoting innovation in waste. This is a major step towards transparency and accountability across the packaging sector, which, in turn, benefits us all.“

As 2025 begins, UK packaging compliance is evolving with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations, marking a pivotal shift towards sustainability and resource efficiency.

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws are reshaping the packaging landscape in the United States, putting more responsibility on brands to manage the lifecycle of their products and packaging. These laws aim to reduce waste and environmental impact by requiring producers (brands) to finance the collection, recycling, and disposal of packaging materials. As a result, brands selling in states with EPR laws need to adapt quickly to stay compliant.
