Packaging team: packaging & food regulations

Our Packaging team helps companies with packaging regulations, from migration testing to the new PPWR obligations. As teamleader, my team and I are right at the heart of it. Do you have a question about packaging and regulations?
We're happy to think it through with you.
Ruben Haleydt, teamleader Packaging

what team Packaging can mean for you?

Declaration of Compliance (DoC)

We teach you how to correctly assess, draft and substantiate a Declaration of Compliance, based on the right information and always applied to the country of destination and the legislation in force.

Risk analysis

You can come to us for both drawing up and reviewing your HACCP plan. We map out all hazards related to packaging and food contact materials and assess their final impact on the end product.

Printing of packaging

Our Normanists help evaluate the inks and barriers used, to minimise the risk of unwanted substances transferring into the food product.

Bioplastics vs. conventional packaging

If you want to (partly) switch to biodegradable, compostable or bio-based packaging materials, we take all influencing factors into account for a smooth transition.

Guidance towards certification

We review the quality system with a focus on simplification, without losing sight of the legal or standard-related requirements.

Internal audits

Internal audits guarantee continuous improvement. With an open mind, we suggest solutions to specific issues.

Training courses

The AMNorman Academy is the place for knowledge sharing. Through our open training offering, in-house training and tailor-made courses, we ensure you can get to work independently afterwards.

PPWR Compliance

The PPWR brings new obligations regarding packaging, data and responsibilities. Discover how AMNorman helps you implement this legislation in a practical and efficient way.

Normcast XXIV - AMNorman - Ruben Haleydt - PPWR: zorgwekkend of niet?

De Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation is sinds 12 augustus 2026 van toepassing. Geen vooruitblik meer maar dagelijkse realiteit voor iedereen die verpakking maakt, inkoopt of op de markt brengt.

Ruben Haleydt, teamlead Packaging, zit er elke dag in. Hij legt uit waarom veel bedrijven zichzelf ten onrechte buiten schot achten, wat er in een technisch dossier hoort en waarom een verklaring van je leverancier zelden volstaat als bewijs.
