The new version of the Packaging Act (VerpackG) introduced in 2019 has been in force since 1 July 2022. This poses challenges for wine producers, wine merchants, distributors of packaged goods and all digital marketplaces: This is because new obligations have applied to them since then, such as registration in the new packaging register Lucid. Non-compliance can result in severe - and expensive - penalties.
What is the Packaging Act?
The Packaging Act came into force on 1 January 2019 and requires packaging to be licensed with one of the dual systems.
The licensing obligation applies to every distributor from the first filled packaging, regardless of the packaging material and quantity - this obligation applies to all packaging supplied to end customers. This also applies to shipping cartons.
The controlling body is the Central Agency Packaging Register (www.verpackungsregister.org), which keeps a publicly accessible register of all licensing companies.
Non-compliance with the law can result in sales bans and fines of up to 200,000 euros.

Weight per bottle 0.75 = approx. 600 grams, i.e. approx. 1700 bottles/tonne
Weight per 12-bottle shipping carton = 2.3 kg, i.e. approx. 430 cartons/tonne. If you use a similar number of 18-bottle cartons as 6-bottle cartons, you can simply calculate the quantities as 12-bottle cartons for a rough calculation.
The calculation aid is non-binding and only suitable for a rough estimate!
