Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on packaging and packaging waste, amending Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 and Directive (EU) 2019/904 and repealing Directive 94/62/EC (COM(2022) 677 final) (118 page, in English), (Annex - 36 page, in English)

This draft Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on packaging and packaging waste aims to harmonise the rules for placing packaging on the EU market while fostering packaging sustainability and circularity. It lays down sustainability requirements for placing packaging on the EU market related to its composition, design with the view to packaging minimisation, recyclability, use of secondary raw materials in plastic packaging, compostability and requirements on reusable packaging. In order to reduce the generation of packaging waste, it restricts the use of some packaging formats and establishes obligations on economic operators and Member States, including packaging reuse and waste prevention targets. As regards recycling targets and the related rules on their calculation, it maintains obligations from the existing EU packaging legislation (European Parliament and Council Directive 94/62/EC of 20 December 1994 on packaging and packaging waste).
