EPR Packaging Thresholds
This table provides an overview of all the thresholds by country that require companies to register for the EPR Packaging rules. In some cases, the thresholds relate to the amount of packaging a company places on the market in a particular country, while in other cases it depends on the company’s turnover in the country where its products are sold.
With the table, you can easily check where registration is required or mandatory for your company.
The thresholds indicated in the tables relate only to volumes in the country of registration, and not to total sales or turnover in different countries.
Despite the threshold, in some countries like Ireland, companies can voluntarily join recycling systems and become members, confirming their compliance with the rules.
