EUDR: The "Batch Approach" explained, and Why Supply Chain Monitoring Is an Ongoing Obligation
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires companies placing relevant commodities and derived products on the EU market to prove their products are deforestation-free — right back to the plot of land where the raw material was grown or harvested. In practice, however, exact one-to-one traceability is often impossible: for bulk commodities like timber, paper pulp, or soy, materials from multiple origins are physically mixed in the course of production and cannot be separated after the fact. The regulation accommodates this reality by requiring operators to report origins "as precisely as possible" and to demonstrate that every input used has a verified, documented origin — not that a specific kilogram of product came from a specific hectare of land. Crucially, this is not a one-time compliance exercise: supply chains change, sourcing regions shift, and risk classifications are updated, making continuous monitoring and regular re-verification of supplier data a core obligation under the regulation.

PPWR and VerpackDG: A Practical Compliance Guide for SMEs
From 12 August 2026, two overlapping sets of packaging rules take effect simultaneously: the EU-wide Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and Germany's new Packaging Implementation Act (VerpackDG), which replaces the existing German Packaging Act (VerpackG). For SMEs, the combination can feel overwhelming. But strip it back and there are really three things you need to get right — and they build on each other in a logical sequence.
LkSG
LkSG Status: Why "Not Being in Scope" Is Not the End of the Story
The German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) formally applies to companies with 1,000 or more employees in Germany. For the vast majority of SMEs, this means no direct legal obligation. But in practice, this distinction matters far less than most SMEs assume — because the companies that are in scope are some of the most powerful buyers in Germany.
Retailers such as Aldi, Lidl, Hornbach, Otto, and Rewe, as well as large manufacturers and brand owners across furniture, automotive, food, and consumer goods, are all subject to the LkSG. Under the act, they are required to conduct risk-based due diligence across their supply chains and document that their suppliers do not expose them to unacceptable human rights or environmental risks. They cannot do this without information from their suppliers. And their suppliers — in many cases — are SMEs.

EUDR modificata: Nuove scadenze per il 2026/2027 e cosa significano le misure di semplificazione per la vostra azienda
A dicembre 2024 e dicembre 2025, l'Unione Europea ha modificato il Regolamento sulla deforestazione (EUDR), introducendo misure di semplificazione e posticipando le date di applicazione.

PPWR: nucleo e attuazione del Regolamento UE sugli imballaggi e i rifiuti di imballaggio
Il Regolamento UE su imballaggi e rifiuti di imballaggio (PPWR) introduce nuovi requisiti su come gli imballaggi devono essere progettati, documentati e immessi sul mercato. Nella pratica, l'attuazione del regolamento dipende meno dall'interpretazione legale che dalla capacità di un'azienda di raccogliere, strutturare e verificare i dati di imballaggio dai fornitori.
