How it sells itself

Map each product variant to one or more packaging layers (material + weight), including your own custom material types. Aggregate paid orders by country and period, then export LUCID (Germany), SYDEREP (France), ECOEMBES (Spain) and UK EPR CSV files in the exact registry format. Full audit trail (HTML, PDF, raw CSV/JSON) included with every report.

Get ready for the EU Packaging & Packaging Waste Regulation (Reg. 2025/40, core duties from 12 August 2026). Tell us the EU countries you sell into and PPWR Ready shows exactly what applies: national EPR registration, whether you need an authorized representative, and your packaging documentation. Map products to packaging types and export a declaration-ready CSV or PDF for your national scheme.

Key points
  • Map variants to packaging layers, materials, and custom types
  • Export LUCID XML, SYDEREP, ECOEMBES and UK EPR CSV
  • CSV import validate-and-apply plus bulk variant mapping
  • Audit trail: HTML, PDF, and raw CSV or JSON per report
  • Know exactly which PPWR duties apply for 12 August 2026 — no guesswork
  • Track EPR registration status per EU country (LUCID, Citeo, CONAI, Ecoembes)
  • Map products to packaging types and export declaration-ready CSV / PDF

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
