Description

In the face of growing environmental concerns, how are countries adapting to packaging waste regulations? This paper examines Greece's response to the EU Regulation 94/62/20.12.94 on Packaging and Packaging Waste, which provides a framework for reducing packaging waste volume across the European Union. The authors report on a survey of Greek manufacturing industries, documenting recent changes and trends in the packaging materials used by consumer goods sectors. The research investigates the main challenges and prerequisites for these industries to meet the demands of the new legislative landscape. The paper sheds light on the practical steps and adaptations being undertaken by Greek manufacturers. This study provides valuable insights into the challenges and adaptations faced by a specific country in response to EU environmental regulations. It serves as a case study for understanding how industries navigate evolving legislative environments and strive for greater sustainability in packaging practices. This is crucial for policymakers and businesses seeking to minimize environmental impact.
