Draft EU Rules for Calculating, Verifying and Reporting on Recycled Plastic Content for Single Use Plastic Beverage Bottles

On 8 July 2025, feedback period opened for EU rules for calculating, verifying and reporting on recycled plastic content in single use beverage bottles.

It states this will give legal clarity to Member States so they can properly implement EU rules on single-use plastics, including mass balance for chemically recycled content.

It will be interesting to see how this overlaps with the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations (PPWR).

The closing date for feedback is 19 August 2025.
