PPWR Packaging: packaging figures you can defend, built from what your store actually ships
This store runs Qoliber PPWR Packaging 1.0.0. It keeps packaging specifications, the packaging information shoppers see on product pages, and an append-only record of what was placed on each EU or UK market — inside Magento, with every figure traceable to the parcels behind it.
Why this exists
Regulation (EU) 2025/40 has applied since 12 August 2026, and national EPR schemes ask how much packaging you placed on each market, by material and period. The honest answer lives in thousands of individual shipments — which carton, how much filler, which country, which day — not in a spreadsheet someone keeps up to date by hand.
What it helps you do
- Keep one reviewed, versioned record of every packaging item you use.
- Show shoppers composition and disposal guidance, with claims only when the evidence is on file.
- Turn real shipments into per-material figures per market that a person can file and defend.
How it works
From the packaging on the shelf to the figure you file
-
Step 1
Record your packaging
Each packaging item gets a specification with its material components and weights. Revisions go through review and approval; an approved revision never changes, and a correction opens a new one.
-
Step 2
Assign it to products
Recipes say which packaging goes with a product. Assignments keep their history per website and work for simple, configurable, bundle and grouped products — by hand, by CSV or over the API.
-
Step 3
Show it on the product page
Shoppers see packaging mass by material, a component table and disposal guidance. "Recyclable" or "Compostable" appears only when the declaration is attached — otherwise the claim is simply not shown.
-
Step 4
Capture what really shipped
Parcels, outer cartons and filler are recorded per shipment — in the admin or from your WMS over REST. If no manifest arrives in time, the website's default shipment packaging applies instead of a guess.
-
Step 5
Keep an append-only ledger
Every dispatched shipment becomes one ledger row per material, dated in the destination market's own timezone. Nothing is edited or deleted; corrections are added alongside the original, with a reason.
-
Step 6
Produce a report you can reproduce
A report run moves from draft to validated to finalized, and refuses to finalize while anything is missing. Every total drills down to its entries, and the CSV comes out the same every time it is regenerated.
Try it
Open a product and scroll to "Packaging"
Each demo product shows a different case the packaging block handles.
Ground coffee in a valve pouch
Four components across three materials, a mass bar, and a "Recyclable — declaration on file" claim.
View product →Compostable tea bags
Industrially compostable with its EN 13432 declaration on file, so the claim shows with guidance for food-waste collection.
View product →Espresso capsules without a declaration
The same kind of claim, but no evidence attached — so the composition shows and the claim does not.
View product →Returnable glass bottle
Reusable packaging with reuse guidance for shoppers.
View product →Premium gift hamper
Nine components in eight materials — glass, ceramics, wood, steel, textiles and more — in one clear table.
View product →Planter in two sizes
A configurable product: pick a size and the packaging changes with it, without reloading the page.
View product →Built for real Magento stores
- Runs inside your store — packaging data, the ledger and documents stay in your own database and storage.
- Works on Luma and Hyvä, with the same packaging block on both.
- REST API for WMS manifests, dispatch confirmation, ERP sales and packaging data.
- Permissions that keep duties apart: reading the ledger does not allow adjusting it.
Plainly stated
- It helps you meet PPWR and EPR reporting duties; it does not file for you.
- Reports come out as a generic CSV that a person transcribes into the scheme's portal — there is no country adapter yet.
- The shipped regulatory code lists are provisional until you review them.
- Decisions about your obligations stay with you and your adviser.
