LIVO PPWR

PPWR has applied across the EU since 12 August 2026, with requirements phasing in over time.

PPWR is one regulation. The work behind it quickly multiplies.

The challenge is not collecting packaging data once. It is keeping data, obligations and evidence connected and up to date as products, packaging and markets change.

Why the work grows

Every product, packaging level and market adds another layer to manage.

A spreadsheet can hold PPWR data. It does not help you manage obligations, evidence, gaps and changes across all your products.

Products

The products you put on the market and need to track.

Packaging levels

Primary, secondary and transport packaging, plus their layers.

EU markets

EU-wide PPWR rules sit alongside Member State registration and reporting.

Obligations and proof

Requirements, deadlines, reports and evidence that can expire.

One change can affect several places at once.

A new supplier, a changed material, an expired report or a new requirement means the picture needs to be checked again.

What this starts to cost you

When PPWR stays manual, the bill keeps growing.

  • It takes too much time.

    Checking, chasing, updating and rebuilding answers quickly turns PPWR into ongoing manual work.

  • Customer requests become a commercial risk.

    If packaging data and proof are not ready when customers ask, you risk delays, rework and lost business.

  • You lose control as things change.

    With data spread across files and systems, it is hard to see what is complete, outdated or still missing.

  • The work depends on a few people.

    When context lives in spreadsheets, folders and inboxes, one absence can slow down the whole process.

PPWR is ongoing work. When it stays manual, time, rework and customer pressure keep adding up.

What LIVO changes

Built to make ongoing PPWR work easier to manage.

Save time. Share the work. Keep everything together. Know where you stand.

From the first import onwards, the workflow helps you fill gaps, manage changes and maintain a complete product file.

01 · Start faster

Live

Your Excel. No rigid template.

Start with the files you already have instead of reshaping everything first. Livo reads the structure, asks when it is unsure and remembers the format. The preview shows what will change before anything is saved, and re-imports update instead of duplicating. Export works the same way, so your data is never locked in.

02 · Stay in control

Live

Know where you stand.

See what is complete, missing, expired or still open, per product and per market, with obligations mapped out to 2040. Evidence carries an expiry date; when it expires, it stops counting on its own. Less checking by hand, and fewer surprises when a customer asks.

03 · Share the work

Live

Let suppliers do part of the work.

Send a prefilled request from your own mailbox: a secure link to the supplier portal, or a prefilled Excel per supplier. Suppliers see what you already know and add only what is missing. Their answers come back as proposed updates for your review. Nothing overwrites what you had.

04 · One maintained source

Live

Keep the file complete and up to date.

Keep packaging data, evidence and status together, so changes are easier to manage. Generate the declaration of conformity and the technical documentation from the same maintained source, with an append-only attestation trail behind it. Entering, confirming and signing are separate rights, held by the people you designate.

Supplier round

Let suppliers fill the gaps.

You send the request; LIVO prepares it. Suppliers add only what is missing and every answer comes back as a proposal for your review.

  1. 1 · Prefilled request

    LIVO prepares a request per supplier with everything you already know filled in.

  2. 2 · You send it

    A secure link or a prefilled Excel, sent from your own mailbox. LIVO does not e-mail your suppliers for you.

  3. 3 · Supplier fills the gaps

    Only what is missing, with plain-language explanations of each field.

  4. 4 · Proposed updates

    Answers land as proposals. You review and confirm; nothing overwrites what you had.

For whom

Four questions to see whether this is your work.

PPWR assigns obligations by role, per product and per market. These questions help you see where you stand.

  • Own-brand manufacturers

    Your name on the box makes you the manufacturer. Is the file per product ready to stand behind, with the evidence to back it?

  • Importers

    Packaging you bring into the EU is yours to answer for. Do you have the supplier data and proof for every product you import?

  • Wholesalers and distributors

    Only your own brands and imports count; what you resell does not. Do you know which of your products that is, per market?

  • Logistics and fulfilment

    The box you fill and the pallet you wrap are your packaging. Do you know which role PPWR gives you, per flow, and what your customers will ask for?

Pricing

Simple pricing, with a clear path to start.

  • Priced by the products you put on the EU market yourself.
  • All EU markets included. No per-user pricing.
  • All plans free until 1 November 2026.
