Comments on the EU Proposal for Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation

AmCham comments on the proposed EU Regulation on packaging and packaging waste, aiming to reduce waste and ensure all packaging is recyclable by 2030. The Regulation introduces various obligations for businesses, including recyclability, reuse, and labeling requirements. AmCham raises concerns about recyclate availability, unclear implementation acts, and potential negative impacts on businesses. Recommendations include involving industry in shaping national positions, basing obligations on scientific criteria, and ensuring clear labeling to avoid consumer confusion.
