Let’s Talk PPWR: Two Weeks to Declarations of Conformity

About this event

The first PPWR compliance deadline on August 12, 2026 is now just weeks away, and many life sciences organizations are still scrambling to finalize their Declarations of Conformity and technical documentation. If you are feeling the pressure, you are not alone. There is still time to move from concern to a defensible compliance position before regulators and customers start asking questions.

As PPWR moves from awareness to enforcement, pharmaceutical and medical device companies need more than guidance on recyclability and future design changes; they need an immediate, executable roadmap that connects packaging, labeling, regulatory, quality, supplier management, and data ownership. Join Network Partners Group on July 23 for a practical, implementation focused discussion built specifically for teams who must show clear progress before the August 12 deadline.

Our panel of life sciences packaging and compliance experts will walk through a seven step readiness action plan and a three step “emergency” path for organizations that know they may not be fully ready in time. We will focus on how to organize decisions, close documentation gaps, clarify legal entity responsibilities, align suppliers, and clearly communicate your compliance program in a way that is accurate, evidence-based, and able to withstand market surveillance or customer scrutiny.

All registrants will receive a one-page PPWR Readiness Checklist and Emergency Action Plan based on our implementation framework, designed to help you start—or accelerate—your internal program immediately after the webinar. If your organization is worried about being non-compliant when PPWR documentation questions arise in mid-August, this session will help you move from anxiety to a clear, defensible plan of record.

What You’ll Learn

  • How to launch a quick start PPWR program with a vetted roadmap, conformity assessment activities, and supplier and test lab engagement for substances of concern.

  • How to use customized DoC templates and technical file architecture to bring fragmented packaging, supplier, and site data into a repeatable documentation process.
  • How to activate a cross functional packaging, regulatory, quality, procurement, labeling, sustainability, and legal team to respond consistently to PPWR inquiries.
