Factual summary report of targeted stakeholder consultation on EU harmonised waste sorting labels as part of the packaging and packaging waste regulation
As the European Union (EU) continues to deal with the increasing quantities of packaging waste and its environmental impact, one area of focus is the harmonisation of waste sorting labels across EU Member States. This effort aims to for easier and more accurate packaging waste sorting in the EU. In this context, between 2 September and 30 September 2024, the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) invited stakeholders to a targeted consultation to gather insights on key aspects of the waste sorting labels currently being developed. The consultation concerned the design and implementation of material-based waste sorting labels as part of the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR). These labels will be applied to packaging and waste receptacles, providing clear guidance on proper disposal to people in the EU. This document provides a factual summary of the stakeholder contributions against the backdrop of outlining how the consultation was conducted.
