EU Environmental Compliance — Built In, Not Bolted On

Since August 2026, the newest EU environmental requirements cover packaging inks, adhesives and board materials. Buyers exporting to Europe need suppliers who are already there. We are.

What Changed

The Newest EU Requirements, in Plain Language

European regulators tightened environmental rules for paper-based packaging in 2026, affecting the substances that may appear in inks, adhesives and board. Packaging that fails the new benchmarks risks border delays, compliance questions from your customers, and costly rework. Choosing a factory that is already compliant removes that risk before it starts.

Inks

Adhesives

Solvent-free / low-VOC gluing throughout production, keeping finished boxes free of problematic residues.

Board

100% recyclable corrugated board materials, sourced to meet European expectations for circular packaging.
