With the gradual application of the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) from August 2026 onwards, packaging data and compliance requirements are becoming increasingly important. To support companies in preparing for these new obligations, Packaging Cockpit now provides new functionalities for creating Declaration of Conformity (DoC) and the corresponding Technical Documentation (TD).
Starting this week, users can create and manage DoCs and TDs directly within the tool.
New functions include:
✔ Creation of Declaration of Conformity (DoC) in accordance with PPWR requirements
✔ Automatic generation of Technical Documentation (TD) based on existing data and supporting documents
✔ Upload and centralized management of all relevant evidence, supplier declarations, and test reports
✔ Documentation of Article 5 requirements, including PFAS-related information
✔ Centralized data and document exchange across the supply chain
All required information is brought together in one central location and can be structured, managed, supplemented, reviewed, and shared throughout the supply chain. Through the integrated data exchange request functionality, missing data and documents can be requested directly within Packaging Cockpit. This significantly reduces inefficient email exchanges with suppliers while ensuring that all relevant information remains transparent, traceable, and centrally accessible.
The new features, templates and content structures for the Declaration of Conformity (DoC) and Technical Documentation (TD) were developed in close collaboration with regulatory and industry experts as part of the Digital Packaging Transformation Initiative. The methodology is based on the PPWR and relevant guidance and explanatory documents published by the European Commission.
With these new capabilities, Packaging Cockpit further expands its support for PPWR compliance and provides companies with a future-proof foundation for creating and managing their compliance documentation.
