PPWR and the Future of Packaging Sustainability

This webinar, timed perfectly as we make our way in 2026, is designed to provide clear and practical insight into the policy and regulatory developments set to shape the year ahead for packaging in the food and drink industry.

Join experts from FDF and Beyondly for essential updates on:

• The evolution of UK Packaging EPR and associated data and reporting requirements
• The latest direction of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and what it means for packaging design, recyclability and labelling
• Growing focus on PFAS and chemicals restrictions affecting food-contact packaging materials and supply chains and how to navigate packaging recyclability.

By outlining what is changing, what these developments mean in practice, and how organisations can prepare effectively, the session aims to support attendees in maintaining compliance, managing risk, and identifying opportunities to strengthen packaging sustainability performance throughout 2026 and beyond.
