Just getting started? Check here if you have any obligations under German packaging law – and what you need to do.
If you are distributing packaged goods in Germany, you have to be registered with the LUCID Packaging Register. We'll show you everything you need to know.
Registration alone is not enough for certain types of packaging. Learn more about how to fulfil the system participation requirement and report your packaging volumes.
Explore this section for more guidance and information, definitions and general help in complying with the law, no matter your sector, distribution channel or logistics solution.
All about the ZSVR's work as an authority, from published decisions and information about the ZSVR Foundation to the minimum standard for recycling-friendly packaging.
Learn more about the PPWR and its implementation, beginning with the definition of “producer”. This page will be updated regulary.
