Disclaimer
SPI content is information to support decisions, not legal, tax, financial or investment advice.
Information, not advice
Strategic Packaging Insights publishes packaging market and regulatory information to support decisions. It is not legal, tax, financial or investment advice. Confirm legal obligations with qualified counsel and your compliance scheme before acting.
Accuracy
Rows are checked against their sources, and each shows the date its source was consulted. Rules, fees and company targets change, so a row can be out of date. Rows not yet verified by a second SPI team member are labelled.
Estimates and calculators
Calculator results, scenarios and forecasts are estimates based on published rates and stated assumptions. They are not a guarantee or a statement of any amount owed.
No testing or certification
SPI does not carry out laboratory or certified testing and does not issue certifications. Recyclability reviews are desk reviews.
Companies named
Naming a company, product or scheme does not imply any relationship with or endorsement by it.

- Q1
Which packaging rules apply to us in each market we sell in?
We map each market's EPR, tax, ban, recycled-content, labelling and deposit rules against your materials and formats, and show which are in force, adopted or only proposed.
- Q2
What could EPR fees and plastic taxes cost us next year?
We apply published fee tables and tax rates to your tonnages and recycled content, and show the result as scenarios with every rate sourced.
- Q3
Can you tell us when a rule changes?
Yes. The free tracker alerts cover rule changes by country; a monitoring retainer adds monthly notes on what the changes mean for your portfolio.
