he European Commission has recently proposed a one-year delay of the EUDR – until 30 December 2026. When the implementation date was last pushed forward, one year ago, from 2024 to 2025, the formal decision from Parliament and Council was taken in mid-December. So, even though there is no formal decision yet, a similar process is what everyone is expecting.
But we at Holmen are continuing our EUDR preparations, just like many of our contacts. We recently opened up to trigger an automatic distribution of CSV-files with the required reference numbers from the EU Traces test environment for our board and paper products. Welcome to contact us if you want to be onboard.
Will EUDR apply to containerboard and packaging?
“Does EUDR apply to packaging?” is a question we get from our customers and contacts. The short answer is yes, if you work with packaging as your standalone product, but no, not if you use packaging only to transport and protect another product. If EUDR applies to you, stay in touch, and we will facilitate your journey.
