PPWR Packaging Checker

Check whether your e-commerce packaging meets the PPWR empty-space limit by comparing your shipping box with the item inside.

PPWR Packaging Checker

Enter your shipping box and the item(s) inside to see the empty-space ratio, which PPWR limits for e-commerce and transport packaging. Use the same unit (e.g. cm) for every field. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.

Shipping box (outer)
Item(s) inside (bounding size)
The combined bounding box of what you ship (product plus any primary packaging).

Educational tool, not legal advice. PPWR sets a maximum empty-space ratio for grouped, transport and e-commerce packaging; the precise measurement methodology is being finalised via implementing acts. This estimator uses an indicative 50% limit.
