PPWR Compliance Information

Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on Packaging and Packaging Waste, commonly known as the PPWR, applies to polythene and polypropylene packaging placed on the EU market. Material specifications and supporting product documentation are available for our polythene and polypropylene products to help customers complete their compliance assessments. However, material type, recycled content or food-contact suitability alone does not confirm full PPWR compliance. The responsible economic operator must assess the finished packaging and its intended use against all applicable requirements, including packaging minimisation, substances of concern, recyclability, recycled content, labelling and technical documentation. Customers intending to place these products on the EU market should email sales@expresspackaging.co.uk to request the latest available documentation and confirm suitability for their application before making a PPWR compliance claim.

Food Safety Information

Many sizes within this range are suitable for food contact; however, due to the recycled content, not every size is certified as food safe. If you require a Food Safety Certificate for a specific bag size, please contact our sales team at sales@expresspackaging.co.uk before ordering. We’ll be happy to confirm whether your chosen size meets your requirements.
