Reporting packaging data

Companies that have joined a producer organisation must submit data concerning the packaging of products that they have placed on the market. Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd customers submit their packaging data reports to Rinki. How and when will this packaging data need to be reported? We are here to help.

Companies with producer responsibility are legally obliged to organise the collection and recycling of the packaging of all products that they place on the market. This ensures that the packaging materials can be recycled into new packaging and products as efficiently as possible.

When companies join the producer responsibility scheme, they transfer their obligation to collect and recycle their packaging to the producer organisations. Companies are left with two duties:

1. Reporting their packaging data
2. Paying the recycling and customer fees determined on the basis of their packaging data.

Reporting packaging data on time is essential for the producer responsibility scheme to work, as the system’s financing, invoicing and operations are dependent on this. 

Please note: Packaging data reports for 2025 and 2026 must be submitted to Rinki by customers of Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd (FPP) in the year in question.

Your company will not be left to report packaging data on its own. We are here to help. You can find reporting instructions and training materials on Rinki’s Extranet.
