PPWR packaging compliance for non-EU sellers

PPWR packaging documents, generated the same day you need them

Add your packaging, answer a few questions, download the file. Declaration of Conformity and technical documentation as PDFs, built for Regulation (EU) 2025/40. Same account, same login, as your GPSR documents.

No credit card needed. Plans from €19 a month. We generate the documents, not the Responsible Person service.

PPWR applies from 12 August 2026, with no transitional period. Food-contact packaging is checked first: PFAS limits apply the same day, even to packaging already sitting in a warehouse.

PPWR is live. Your packaging needs paperwork now.

Regulation (EU) 2025/40 replaced the old packaging directive and it applies from 12 August 2026, across all 27 member states, with no grace period for stock you already made. Every packaging type you ship into the EU needs a Declaration of Conformity backed by technical documentation. If any of it touches food, PFAS concentration limits apply that same day.

  • A marketplace or customs check asks for your packaging's Declaration of Conformity and you don't have one.
  • Food-contact packaging needs PFAS evidence on file by 12 August 2026, with no transitional period.
  • Reading Regulation (EU) 2025/40 yourself means guessing which Articles 5 to 12 requirements apply to your packaging.
  • You ship several packaging formats, boxes, mailers, inserts, and each one needs its own file.

From packaging details to a finished file, in one app

  1. 1

    Add your packaging

    Name, format (primary, secondary, transport), and whether it touches food. About 60 seconds and you're set up.

  2. 2

    Answer the guided questions

    Materials, weights, recycled content, PFAS and heavy metals evidence. The PPWR document generator asks only what the regulation needs to see.

  3. 3

    Download the documents

    Your Declaration of Conformity and technical documentation build from the same answers and download as PDFs the same day.

  4. 4

    Store and re-export for years

    Every file stays in your account with version history. When a marketplace or authority asks again, you re-download the exact document in seconds.

The documents you download

PPWR Declaration of Conformity

The Article 39 self-declaration that your packaging meets Regulation (EU) 2025/40, with the declaring party and role printed on the document.

PPWR technical documentation

Material breakdown, PFAS and heavy metals evidence, recyclability assessment, and the empty-space calculation behind the DoC.

PFAS limits for food-contact packaging

From 12 August 2026, Article 5 sets concentration limits for PFAS in any packaging that touches food or drink directly. This is a concentration limit, not a ban on PFAS by name, so it can catch a coating or liner you never chose for its PFAS content. There is no transitional period: it applies to packaging already on the market, not just new stock.

  • Any single non-polymeric PFAS substance: 25 ppb or below
  • Sum of non-polymeric PFAS substances: 250 ppb or below
  • Total fluorine, including polymeric PFAS: 50 ppm or below

Only the layer or component that actually touches food is held to this limit. An outer box that never contacts food isn't covered, even inside the same packaging system.
