Worum geht es
Recycling labels as an aid for consumers
In contrast to various voluntary sustainability labels, specific recycling labels such as the Triman logo with sorting information in France or a disposal notice in Italy are enshrined in law. Packaging that accumulates in private households in particular is subject to various labelling requirements: The aim is to encourage consumers to separate packaging correctly in order to ultimately improve the recycling of these recyclable materials and achieve higher recycling rates.
The first distributor of this packaging is generally obliged to ensure that the packaging is correctly labelled and complies with all legal requirements.

No uniform labelling requirements for the whole of Europe
Depending on the country in which companies place packaging on the market, different labelling requirements apply to packaging. Adjustments have recently been made in many EU member states and it will be some time before the PPWR results in standardised recycling labels for the whole of Europe. Until then, as in the other EPR areas, it is important to obtain comprehensive information about national labelling requirements and disposal instructions on packaging.
Recyclability of packaging
Recycling labels with disposal instructions provide clear information about the material composition and the correct disposal methods. They help to minimise the contamination of recyclable material. As a result, consumers know how to sort and dispose of packaging correctly. Labelling requirements create a legal framework that encourages companies to design packaging in such a way that it is easier to recycle, thereby promoting the development of more sustainable packaging solutions. If the recyclability of packaging is assessed, labels with mandatory disposal instructions are therefore also among the criteria that must be met if packaging is to demonstrate a high level of recyclability.
Recognising and implementing individual obligations
Our experts can inform you about the various European labelling requirements for packaging. In addition to general European directives within the framework of the EU Packaging Directive, there are often much stricter national requirements to be met. We offer various services relating to international labelling requirements in order to provide your company with tailored advice.
Review & pre-check of your obligations
Based on European and national legislation, our team of experts determines how the labelling requirements are regulated in your relevant markets. In the form of an analysis report, we inform you about the country-specific packaging labelling and recycling labels – always tailored to your packaging range.
Individual analysis & information on labelling obligations

Furthermore, we will be pleased to meet your needs!
