AMCOR has hosted a customer event at its facility in Steinfeld, Germany, focused on the upcoming Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and its implications for logistics packaging.
The event brought together stakeholders from across the packaging value chain to explore how evolving European regulations are shaping logistics packaging design, recyclability, and material selection.
Attendees included representatives from the Bundesvereinigung Logistik (BVL) – a non-profit association founded in 1978 to promote awareness of logistics and supply chain management across industry, science and the public sphere – as well as leading organisations from the logistics and industrial packaging industries.
Guests also toured the Steinfeld site’s manufacturing operations to see how innovation in materials and processes is helping Amcor’s customers advance towards upcoming PPWR targets and more circular packaging solutions.
As part of the discussions, attendees were introduced to Amcor’s stretch hood film solutions for pallets, designed to withstand the rigors of the supply chain while supporting sustainability goals such as reduced reliance on virgin materials through post-consumer recycled (PCR) content and downgauging.
Daniel Stauber, sales director at Amcor, said, “The PPWR will bring significant changes to how packaging is designed, produced, and managed across Europe.
“Our discussions focused on how we can navigate these changes together – combining regulatory readiness with technical innovation and reliable performance. Coming together like this strengthens our shared understanding of both challenges and opportunities, and reinforces how collaboration is key to achieving practical, circular outcomes.”
