Compliance

Packaging compliance in Europe

Europe has the most established EPR landscape in the world, and it's about to get more demanding. Between national packaging, WEEE and battery schemes in individual member states and the incoming EU wide Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, Ecoveritas already helps businesses stay ahead on both fronts.

We manage packaging, WEEE and battery compliance for clients across Germany, France, Spain, Belgium, Austria, Bulgaria and beyond, each with its own registration, fee and reporting requirements. Layered on top is PPWR, the new EU regulation reshaping packaging design, recyclability and labelling from August 2026. Our team is already helping clients prepare for both layers together.
