COMMISSION NOTICE Guidance document for Regulation (EU) 2025/40 on packaging and packaging waste · European Union
For example, if the recycling target for aluminium is exceeded in a given Member State, retailers could be allowed to deduct beverages sold in aluminium cans from the products within the scope of the obligation to sell 10 % of the beverages in reusable packaging. The retailers will still have to fulfil the re-use target for beverages sold in packaging made from other materials, such as glass and plastic, but the 10 % target is proportionally reduced for the share of beverages sold in aluminium cans.
