PPWR and PFAS 2026

VEPAK’s Approach

At VEPAK, we closely monitor legislative developments and have a long-standing commitment to ensuring that our products comply with applicable safety and quality requirements. Our packaging materials intended for food contact meet the established PFAS limits and comply with the requirements of the new European legislation.

Legislation governing packaging materials is constantly evolving, and VEPAK actively monitors these changes. Our goal is to provide our customers with safe, high-quality and legally compliant packaging materials that meet both current and future requirements of the European market.

European legislation on packaging materials is undergoing significant changes. One of these is the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), which, from 12 August 2026, introduces requirements regarding the content of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in packaging intended for food contact.

If you have any questions regarding PPWR requirements or our packaging solutions, please do not hesitate to contact our sales team.
