Transition to Mono-Material Packaging: Why and How?
The advantages of switching to mono-material packaging structures in light of EU regulations, and the key points to consider.
Under the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), all packaging is targeted to be recyclable by 2030. This regulation makes the transition from multi-layer mixed material structures to mono-material structures mandatory. Mono-material packaging, produced from a single polymer type (PE or PP), becomes fully compatible with existing recycling infrastructure.
