The Packaging Standards Compass · Session 3: Convergence, Paths Forward

The Packaging Standards Compass is a shared view of how customer packaging requirements and state EPR laws interact, and an exploration of how industry could solve the gaps between them. It runs as three virtual sessions between October 2026 and January 2027, each one hour, with no fee to take part.

Session 3 is the convergence: everyone who took part in the first two sessions, in one room, working through the paths forward. What could a shared approach look like, who would need to be involved, and what would it take to test it. The hope is a clear path forward by the end of the session, captured in a short phase-one paper.

Convened by Circle and launched at See Change in September, the Compass is reviewed against antitrust guidance and runs under Chatham House Rule. The programme is delivered with support from Atlantic Packaging.
