Reusable Packaging That Works:
Tosca’ s Answer to EPR and PPWR Challenges
Packaging legislation across the UK and Europe is evolving rapidly, prompting businesses to rethink how they package, transport, and manage goods. With Extended Producer Responsibility( EPR) now active in the UK, and the EU’ s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation( PPWR) coming into force, companies must shift from single-use packaging toward sustainable, circular solutions.
For retailers, producers, and distributors, this is more than a regulatory challenge. It is a strategic opportunity. Reusable packaging unlocks a future where supply chains are not only compliant, but also smarter, sustainable and more efficient.
Tosca, a Circular Solution for a Circular Economy
Tosca is a global leader in 100 % reusable and recyclable plastic packaging and pooling solutions. Its model and products are designed to support compliance, improve efficiency, and enhance supply chain sustainability, helping
22 FDPP- www. fdpp. co. uk businesses meet EPR and PPWR requirements while strengthening supply chain performance.
At the heart of Tosca’ s offering is a closed-loop pooling system. Durable, hygienic assets such as crates, pallets, dollies, and bulk containers are reused up to 100 times. When they reach the end of their life, they are fully recycled and reintroduced into the loop. No plastic is wasted. Alongside pooling, we also offer flexible rental and purchase options to meet different customer needs.
This system helps businesses avoid the costs and risks associated with single-use packaging. It also delivers more than regulatory compliance- offering a resilient, reliable and cost-effective supply chain solution.
What Is Pooling?
Pooling is a shared, circular packaging model. Instead of owning and managing packaging assets, Tosca manages it all. After use, Tosca handles collection, cleaning, and maintenance, ensuring assets are always available and ready for reuse.
The benefits are clear:
• No waste
• No hassle
• Always compliant with EPR and PPWR
