Become a partnerAutomatically collect packaging data for PPWR compliance
Transparency across packaging — automated with VERSO. Collect technical documentation and declarations of conformity from your suppliers in a structured and standardized way in one central location. This creates a reliable foundation for your packaging data and supports compliance with EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR).
Core PPWR challenge: packaging data from the supply chain
The PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation) will be phased in starting August 2026. For affected companies – especially procurement teams – information, documentation, and evidence obligations across the supply chain will initially take center stage. This comes with specific challenges:
- How can I obtain packaging data from my suppliers efficiently and accurately?
- How can I ensure that technical documentation and declarations of conformity are complete and comparable?
- How can I avoid manual one-off requests, follow-up questions, and data gaps?
- And how can I build processes that are not only suitable for PPWR, but also reusable for additional regulatory requirements?
The answer to these questions lies in automated data requests and processes powered by the VERSO Supply Chain Hub. This allows you to collect reliable data from your supply chain efficiently and make it usable for PPWR compliance.
Thanks to the VERSO Supply Chain Hub, we were able to onboard nearly all of our suppliers in a very short time and now have a meaningful risk analysis in place. The transparency gained across the supply chain provides a solid foundation for long-term partnerships and sustainable action.
PPWR assessment directly within the VERSO Supply Chain Hub
Assess PPWR readiness across the supply chain
How far along are your business partners today when it comes to requirements under the new Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation? The PPWR assessment provides a simple way to find out.
- Engage suppliers early and guide them in a targeted way toward PPWR requirements.
- Gain a clear overview of impact and preparation status across the supply chain.
- Create a reliable foundation to effectively manage the next steps of the PPWR process.
For rapid transparency in procurement, a clear overview, and initial supplier awareness.
Knowledge base and helpdesk integrated into the software
Provide targeted support to suppliers
To receive data from your suppliers in a timely manner, they need to be familiar with PPWR requirements. To facilitate communication and collaboration, we provide an integrated knowledge base and helpdesk—freely accessible to your suppliers.
- Knowledge base with clear, easy-to-understand information on PPWR and data collection.
- Helpdesk for technical and subject-matter questions that relieves your team.
For greater supplier understanding, fewer coordination efforts, and a stronger relationship between suppliers and procurement.
Send standardized data requests automatically
Capture packaging data with ease
For many supply chain managers, data collection is cumbersome: manual requests, fragmented master data management, and inconsistent templates. VERSO enables standardized collection of packaging data, technical documentation, and declarations of conformity directly from your suppliers.
- Predefined templates for consistent, comparable data formats.
- Automated data requests reduce manual, one-off processes.
- One central location for all your supply chain information.
- Structured data preparation and export options for external sharing.
This results in fewer follow-up questions, higher data quality, and seamless data handover.
Optional process advisory support from our experts
Expert guidance through PPWR implementation
Like many EU regulations, the PPWR is complex when it comes to interpretation and implementation. Roles may overlap, not all delegated acts have been finalized yet, and specific requirements vary depending on company size, product portfolio, and position within the supply chain.
In situations like these, accompanying process advisory support has proven effective. We are happy to support affected companies, including with:
- Classification of roles and obligations: Clear understanding of which responsibilities are relevant for your organization.
- Structuring PPWR preparation: Focused prioritization instead of parallel, isolated actions.
- Integration into existing processes: Alignment with established supply chain, data, and compliance structures.
