PPWR – We Help You Tick the Boxes

What Support Do You Need?

 The EU’s new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) entails significant tightening of requirements – affecting both how packaging must be designed and how organisations need to work. All companies placing packaging on the EU market are affected, regardless of material, application, or industry. 
At RISE, we support companies throughout the transition. Whether you need a strategic, organisation‑wide transformation or want to verify that a specific packaging solution meets the requirements, we help you take the right steps at the right time.

Our Offerings

PPWR ROADMAP – Strategic Transformation for Future Packaging

PPWR ROADMAP is our most comprehensive offering, starting from your current packaging portfolio and working together to develop a concrete roadmap. The goal is to transform both your organisation and product portfolio to meet PPWR and other environmental requirements. With ROADMAP, RISE works together with you to: 

• Analyse the current state  of your packaging portfolio
• Identify gaps relative to upcoming regulations
• Develop a long‑term strategy for both organisation and packaging
• Create a concrete, time‑bound roadmap with clear allocation of responsibilities 

ROADMAP suits companies that want to stay ahead and work proactively towards 2026, 2028 and 2030, when several central requirements take effect.
