Definition: A product is the item that the consumer actually intends to eat, drink, use, or operate. Products exist in three main types:
- Consumable products: Items that are consumed or depleted when used, such as food, beverages, cosmetics, inkt for printing, homecare products, pet food, paint and other chemicals.
- Disposable products: Items that generate a waste stream after single or limited use, such as diapers, printer cartridges without ink, used cooking oil, or motor oil.
- Durable products: Items intended for repeated or long-term use, such as bicycles, smartphones, waste bins, or table lamps.
Products become commercialized when they are combined with Sales Packaging (SP) into an Individual Sales Unit (ISU).
Regulatory Context
- ESPR (Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation): Focuses on the product itself, defining sustainability and circularity requirements for consumable, disposable, and durable goods.
- PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation): Focuses on the packaging part, setting requirements for Sales Packaging (SP), Grouped Packaging (GP), Transport Packaging (TP), and Delivery Packaging (DP).
Together, ESPR and PPWR ensure that both products and their packaging are covered in the EU regulatory framework.
