The Final Countdown to PPWR Enforcement
As of today, luxury brands have exactly 110 days until August 12, 2026—the date the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) becomes law. This is no longer a strategic discussion; it is an operational emergency.
The Cost of Non-Compliance
Fines for non-compliant packaging can reach up to 4% of annual turnover in certain EU jurisdictions. More importantly, shipments that violate Article 24 (Empty Space Ratio) will be blocked at the border, disrupting entire collection launches.
