The Declaration of Conformity (DoC) is the central piece of compliance evidence under the PPWR. It has to be available for market surveillance, for audits and on request from business partners. Produced manually it costs a lot of time and is error-prone.

What belongs in a PPWR DoC

  • Name, trade name and contact details of the responsible economic operator
  • Unambiguous identification of the packaging (article number, description, image)
  • Declaration of conformity with the applicable PPWR requirements
  • Details on material composition, recyclability and recycled content
  • Reference to the standards applied plus date and responsible person

From days to minutes

A DoC generator pulls the required details from the product and packaging data you have already captured and assembles them into a complete, consistent declaration of conformity. Instead of hunting values across spreadsheets, you generate the document at the push of a button — versioned and with an audit trail.

Completeness is not an accident

Missing mandatory particulars only surface in the audit — and then they are expensive. A structured generator enforces completeness and makes every version traceable.
