GPSR and PPWR in practice
Guidance for companies organising product, packaging and supplier data with controlled documentation.
GPSR
What data and documents to require from a supplier under GPSR
Simply receiving a file from a supplier does not close the GPSR matter. Check what data to request, how to assess the response and how to document gaps.
PPWR
Sales, grouped and transport packaging in PPWR data
A product's packaging is made up of several connected levels. Find out how to record components, quantities and conversion factors without losing history.
PPWR
Reusable packaging and reuse systems under the PPWR
Durable packaging does not yet create a reuse system. See how to combine design, circulation, returns, cycles and actual results.
GPSR
Product risk analysis under GPSR - how to gather material for assessment
A good risk analysis starts with data about the actual product and how it is used. We show a process that organises hazards, evidence and decisions.
GPSR
Product-related accident - how to prepare data for a GPSR notification
An accident notification requires facts, product identification and a history of actions. We set out the process from receiving information to closing the case.
GPSR
Product identification and traceability in GPSR - how to link data and evidence
A name and SKU are not always enough to identify a product batch. We show how to link identifiers, variants, suppliers, documents and notifications.
PPWR
PPWR implementation calendar in a company - deadlines, responsibility and data
An implementation calendar turns requirements into responsibility and tasks. See how to plan data collection, reviews and measurable gates.
PPWR
PPWR from 12 August 2026 - what changes in working with packaging data
PPWR changes the way packaging information is handled, but not all requirements start on the same day. See how to prepare data without premature declarations.
PPWR
Packaging technical documentation and PPWR declaration of conformity
Technical documentation gathers the basis for assessment, and the declaration is a formal statement by the manufacturer. We explain a safe workflow.
PPWR
Packaging minimisation and empty space in the PPWR - what data to collect
A large box is not enough for an assessment. We set out the product, packaging, filling and shipping process data needed for a documented analysis.
PPWR
Packaging labelling in the PPWR - how to prepare a data structure
A label is the result of working with data, not its only source. See how to connect components, markings, languages, designs and batches.
PPWR
Packaging design for recycling in the PPWR - data, criteria and evidence
A declaration that packaging is recyclable is not enough. We show the construction of data, evidence, criteria and revision of the design decision.
PPWR
Materials, mass and recyclate - which packaging data to organise under PPWR
A single field with a material name does not describe packaging. We show a controlled model of components, masses, recyclate, methods and sources.
GPSR
Manufacturer, importer, distributor and responsible person under GPSR
A company's role depends on the specific product and supply chain. See how to distinguish between manufacturer, importer, distributor and responsible person.
GPSR
Language versions of GPSR instructions and warnings for different EU markets
Translation must lead to the right product, market and source text. We show version control from draft to production file.
GPSR
Inspection, product withdrawal and GPSR audit trail
In an inspection or corrective action, fast reconstruction of the product, evidence and decisions matters. See how to build a useful audit trail.
Operations
How to organise GPSR for 100, 500 and 2,000 SKUs
A larger catalogue requires relationships, versions and work queues, not just a bigger spreadsheet. We show a model for 100, 500 and 2,000 SKUs.
PPWR
How to collect PPWR data from packaging suppliers
A general supplier assurance is not enough. See how to collect values and documents for a specific component and control their assessment.
GPSR
GPSR technical documentation - what a company should organise
GPSR documentation should not be a loose folder of files. We explain how to build a product dossier that preserves sources, versions and responsibility.
GPSR
GPSR product withdrawal notice - versions, recipients and proof of dispatch
An effective notice must identify the product, the risk and the action required of the recipient. We show how to control versions, channels, delivery and reminders.
Online selling
GPSR on Allegro and in your online shop - how to prepare product data
An online listing should present the correct data before purchase. See how to prepare source data for Allegro and your own shop, without promises of automatic integration.
GPSR
GPSR instructions and warnings - how to manage them for multiple SKUs
Instructions and warnings must be based on product data. We show how to control variants, languages, approvals and withdrawn revisions.
GPSR
GPSR for importers - a practical list of data and documents
Importing a product from outside the EU requires more than an invoice and a catalogue sheet. See what data, documents and decisions are worth organising before making the product available.
Operations
GPSR and PPWR for every SKU - spreadsheet or controlled system
A spreadsheet is a good way to start an inventory, but it is harder to control relationships, revisions and decisions. See when it is worth moving to a system.
Online sales
Art. 19 GPSR in distance selling - control of information in the offer
Article 19 GPSR sets out the information needed in distance selling. We show how to gather it in one source and control published versions.
