Are you ready for the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (#PPWR)? 

In April, the European Parliament approved the draft of the PPWR, with final approval from the newly elected parliament expected in autumn 2024 – meaning it could become effective as early as 2026. 📅✍️

The PPWR sets forth significant changes to enhance and standardize packaging sustainability across Europe, to name just a few: 

📉 Specific targets to reduce packaging waste, requiring businesses to minimize waste generated by their packaging.
 ♻️ Stricter recyclability requirements that ensure all packaging can be reused or effectively recycled promoting a circular economy. 
 🌱Mandatory use of recycled materials in certain packaging, particularly plastics, to increase recycling rates and resource efficiency.
 🏷️Clear labeling and information mandates to guide proper disposal and recycling of packaging materials.

This journey to more recyclable packaging practices is crucial not just for compliance or the future success of the company but also for the health of our planet – and we’re proud to be a part of it at Packmatic.

We have already seen the first impact of the regulation ourselves – across all of our customers, there’s a spike of interest to switch to more recyclable packaging materials. 📈🔄

How are you preparing for PPWR? Have you already observed changes in the market?

🗞️ TechCrunch: Packmatic, a Berlin-based digital packaging marketplace has raised a €15 million Series A round led by EQT Ventures. This funding will help the startup push further into European markets.

On why EQT Ventures was selected as the lead investor, Matthias Geiss, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Packmatic comments: “they have a very good understanding of business models that try to disrupt very traditional industries. Plus, their approach is very entrepreneurial. So all the investment team are either former entrepreneurs themselves or operators in startups.”

Rania Belkahia, Partner at EQT Ventures adds: “The European packaging market boasts an impressive valuation, but remains opaque, fragmented, and crucially, largely non-digital. Packmatic’s platform provides a unique solution– a cost-effective, fully digital marketplace championing the shift to low-carbon packaging.”

❤️‍🔥 How did Filabé of Switzerland AG manage to digitize their packaging sourcing, improve recyclability, and consolidate their supplier setup at the same time?
 
🧴 Filabé’s products are high-quality cosmetics that contain only active ingredients. Since most are applied daily, the consumer interacts with the packaging very frequently, and an exclusive presentation is critical.
 
🎙️“Through the great efforts of our team and the fantastic support of David Martin and Patrick Zentgraf at Packmatic, we were able to consolidate our packaging sourcing without compromising quality and even achieved an improvement in recyclability. We can only recommend giving Packmatic’s digital solution a try.” — Marius Risch, Filabé
 
🏢 Who produces Filabé's new packaging? With the help of Packmatic, they switched to a traditional German supplier, specialized on folding boxes, which already delivers to many other high-quality brands as well as large, uncompromising customers.
 
📹 In the video below you see the print approval process, where Packmatic’s packaging engineers and the technicians of the partner supplier patiently worked together with Filabé to ensure perfect print results, without compromising quality in the slightest.

Happy Friday from the entire team at Packamtic!
