Compliance and materials, per item code.

Since 12 August 2026 the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (EU) 2025/40 applies. Your buyers ask for data per article number, not a generic letter. This is what we hold, what we declare, and how to request it.

04 / How to request

Send your item codes. We send the declarations.

Tell us your article numbers or ours (for example VM-01E-S316) and whether your buyer's template must be filled. Declarations are in English and sent on request.

What we do not claim

No recyclability grade can be issued today; the criteria are not adopted yet. Recycled content is declared as 0 %. Our declarations support your compliance file; they are not a substitute for your own Declaration of Conformity where you are the producer. We say this in writing, because a buyer's auditor will ask.

Updated with every regulatory milestone.
