The World Packaging Organisation (WPO) will be hosting a webinar on 22 February, which will be discussing the Plastics & Plastics Waste Regulation (PPWR) updates, and all of industry is invited to attend.

If you are wanting to better understand how to implement future requirements of PPWR and Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), then this webinar is for you.

The PPWR framework conditions are changing the landscape of the packaging industry dramatically and everyone needs to better understand the new legal requirements and how they apply to every business.

The legislature is presenting industry stakeholders with completely new challenges, above all, through the CSRD and the PPWR.

In this WPO-hosted webinar, the speakers will discuss:

  • How packaging design and sustainability indicators are affected by the CSRD and the minimisation requirements of the PPWR;
  • What reporting obligations companies will be faced with; and
  • How companies can fulfill these requirements and prepare themselves for practical solutions.

The moderator for the webinar will be WPO’s Nerida Kelton, vice-president Sustainability & Save Food, and speakers will include:

  • Johanna Mayer, Unfold: CSRD – Unveiling General Requirements and Objectives;
  • Lina Wimmer, Circular Analytics: Navigate the Landscape: General Requirements of PPWR with a Focus on Packaging Minimization;
  • Manfred Tacker, Circular Analytics Sustainable Packaging Design: Exploring Impacts on Packaging Design and Sustainability Indicators; and Streamline the Process: Conceptualising a Cradle-to-Gate Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) for Packaging; and
  • Charlotte Werner, Circular Analytics: Roadmap to Compliance: Guidance on ensuring fitness for PPWR and CSRD.

The speakers will then be invited to a panel discussion with the moderator.

The webinar is free of charge and will be broadcast as a livestream. For those interested, click here to register.
