Our offer: Quick Green Pack Scan (PPWR Check Packaging)

Checking your own packaging for sustainability risks can be quite time-consuming and nerve-wracking. Apart from that, it also requires excellent knowledge of materials and extensive knowledge of PPWR regulations in order to carry out a comprehensive check and ultimately be able to say with certainty:

“Yes, my packaging is convincing in terms of sustainability at all levels.”

or

“No, I need to revise my packaging so that it meets all requirements.”

We are experts in sustainable packaging design and analyze how your packaging performs in terms of sustainability as part of our Quick Green Pack Scan. Why “quick”? The value chain is incredibly long, but the time for reviews and adjustments is limited. That’s why we deliberately pick out the four most important parts:

  1. Retail: Retail sustainability requirements
  2. Consumers: current consumer preferences
  3. Disposal and recycling: recyclability of your packaging
  4. Legal regulations: compliance with the PPWR (PPWR Check & PPWR Compliance)

Our final risk assessment shows you clearly and reliably whether your packaging is truly sustainable or whether action is needed—and if so, how urgent it is.

This is how our Green Pack Scan (PPWR Check) works

01

01 Selection of packaging

In the first step of our Quick Green Pack Scan, we select up to five representative packaging items from your range. In consultation with you, we identify the most significant pain points and the specifications of all packaging components. If necessary, we supplement this with physical samples so that we can examine your packaging in minute detail.

02

02 Analysis and evaluation

For a particularly efficient packaging check as part of our Green Pack Scan, we focus our analysis on the four most important parts of the value chain: retail, consumers, disposal and recycling, and legal regulations.

We compare your packaging with the sustainability requirements of the retail sector and evaluate it according to applicable guidelines. In addition, we include relevant market research studies on consumer opinions regarding materials and packaging in our check. Expert assessments of recyclability and a structured PPWR check (including a look at PPWR compliance) of your packaging complete our Quick Green Pack Scan.

03

03 Risk assessment

Finally, we assign each analysed packaging to a four-level risk classification:

Green: no risk, currently safe
Yellow: low risk, potential adjustment required
Orange: medium risk, e.g. risk to marketability
Red: high risk, not marketable, immediate action required

04

04 Outcome

You will receive individual packaging assessments representative of your product range from the perspective of retailers, consumers, waste disposal and legislation. Our conclusion naturally also includes specific recommendations for action. With our Quick Green Pack Scan, we provide you with clear decision-making support for your sustainable packaging strategy – including a PPWR check of your packaging and an assessment of PPWR compliance.
