The circular economy is gaining in importance: regulatory requirements vs. practice<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Austrian Sustainability Summit 2026 was fully booked and once again demonstrated the growing importance of the circular economy and resource issues. As part of the summit, the Circular Economy <\/span> <\/span><\/b>Stream as an independent conference format provides space for in-depth discussions and concrete solutions along the entire value chain.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

We were there with the panel “<\/span>With barrier papers to PPWR conformity and low EPR fees”<\/span><\/b> and deliberately opted for a practice-oriented approach.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

The focus was on the question of how companies can translate increasing regulatory requirements – particularly as a result of the PPWR – into concrete solutions at an early stage. This is because it has become clear with the entry into force of the first regulations, for example on “Substances in Packaging” (e.g. PFAS in accordance with Article 5): <\/span>The debate about recyclability and material selection cannot be delayed.<\/span><\/b> <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”787857″]Our colleague Dominik Lichtenth\u00e4ler, Sales Engineer in the Made for Recycling division<\/strong>, showed that Packaging can already be optimized in line with national and international standards. What is still considered a “nice to have” in many places is increasingly becoming an economic factor: packaging design, material selection and regulatory requirements are converging and becoming a lever for cost optimization, especially with regard to future eco-fee modulation as part of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

Together with Herwig Kirchberger, Managing Director of DELSCI GmbH, we used specific examples of innovative barrier papers to show how functional requirements, recyclability and regulatory compliance can be combined. At the same time, this is already opening up potential for reducing EPR fees. <\/span> <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”25323″ caption=”yes” media_width_percent=”50″ uncode_shortcode_id=”150642″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”115380″]<\/p>\n

Thomas Glatz, Managing Director Interzero Austria, comments:<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n

The Circular Economy Stream has clearly shown how strong the need is for concrete, practicable solutions. Especially when it comes to topics such as PPWR and recyclability, it is no longer about theory, but about how companies can implement these requirements in practice in an economically viable way.” <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

The intensive exchange in the panel and the numerous discussions at our Meeting Point confirmed this: Companies are looking for concrete guidance to not only fulfill regulatory requirements, but to actively use them for their own transformation.<\/span> <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”503714″]You can find more impressions and insights from the Austrian Sustainability Summit HERE<\/a><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=”h3″ text_size=”h3″ uncode_shortcode_id=”111411″]Latest News<\/strong>[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_row_inner limit_content=””][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image media=”25279″ media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”four-three” uncode_shortcode_id=”149464″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”580786″]<\/p>\n
