Logistikbude GmbH, together with the Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg and the Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics, surveyed managers in German companies about the new EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR).
The „PPWR Sentiment Index German Economy 2025″ shows the extent to which companies are prepared for the new regulations and is intended to raise awareness of the comprehensive effects of the regulation.
„The new EU Packaging Regulation affects supply chains, packaging processes and compliance requirements. The sentiment index is intended to create a realistic picture from practice and show where German companies are already well prepared for the new regulation - and where there is still a need for action.“
Michael Koscharnyj, Co-Founder and COO of Logistikbude GmbH
Logistikbude has compiled the „PPWR Sentiment Index German Economy 2025″ in close cooperation with the Collaboration with the Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg (SIM) and the Fraunhofer Institute for Material Flow and Logistics (IML) survey. Over a period of one month, the respondents included managing directors, supply chain management specialists, sustainability officers and employees from the areas of packaging and packaging management and purchasing. Using an online questionnaire, they assessed both their level of knowledge and their company's ability to implement the new requirements.
In total, representatives from 90 companies from the areas of trade, production, logistics, packaging production and pooling participated. The company sizes ranged from small businesses with less than 50 employees to large companies with over 2,000 employees.
From 16 September, Logistikbude will be making the survey results available free of charge on its Website available.
