COMMISSION NOTICE Guidance document for Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on packaging and packaging waste · European Union
Therefore, in the absence of a definition of ‘single-use plastic packaging’, it should be considered that composite packaging, including paper-based packaging containing 5 % or more plastic, is covered by the packaging bans in Article 25 and Annex V, points 1– 4 of this Regulation. Packaging containing not more than 5 % of plastic is thus not covered by this ban.
