Clear PET bottle, HDPE flip cap, PP wrap label
Body, cap, label, ink, varnish, adhesive — every physical part of the packaging. PPWR Annex II computes recyclability from this graph, not from a single material.

Article 5 bans intentional PFAS in food-contact packaging placed on the EU market from 12 August 2026. This card cross-checks the SKU-level flags, the per-component composition, and whether a Declaration of Conformity covers Article 5.
No component declares PFAS.
Covered by an active DoC
Each row below is a PPWR article whose DoC coverage is missing, partial, expired or rejected for this SKU. Close them by uploading the right Declaration of Conformity (or fixing the underlying SKU data).
A valid DoC per SKU is mandatory since 12 August 2026. Keep it available to market-surveillance authorities for 5 years (10 years for reusable packaging).
For every Member State where you place packaging on the market, you (or your Article 45 authorised representative) must be registered in the national EPR scheme.
Annex VII · photos
2 photos · 2 labelled They are laid out full page in the compiled technical dossier, so an overview, the marking and the closure are worth having.
Annex VII · technical documentation
One file assembling what this workspace holds for this packaging: identification, the component breakdown, the photographs, the assessment results, the evidence on file with its hashes, and the declaration. It compiles your data — it writes no regulatory text of its own.
Attach existing Declarations of Conformity to this SKU and keep its Annex VIII technical documentation in one place.
All packaging placed on the EU market must meet a recyclability floor: Grade C from 1 Jan 2030, Grade B from 1 Jan 2038. Grade A is the design north star.
The harmonised methodology under Article 6(4) is due by 12 Feb 2027 — today's grade is our best-effort heuristic.
Plastic packaging must contain a minimum share of post-consumer recycled plastic from 1 Jan 2030, stepping up in 2040.
Harmonised material and sorting labels on the packaging. The Article 12(6) implementing acts are still awaited — operators get 24 months from their adoption.
Ask a supplier to fill the technical data for this SKU’s components. You can always fill it in yourself — a supplier just speeds it up.
