Even though some EU environmental legislation gives the impression that everything will now be simpler, appearances can be deceiving: for example, the EU has enacted its latest laws on batteries and packaging as regulations that apply directly in all EU member states. However, this has not made it any easier for the economic operators concerned to comply with their obligations. As in the past, the specific characteristics of each EU member state with regard to national waste management must be taken into account.

Keeping track of obligations and deadlines is a real challenge given the abundance of new laws. The increasing demand for products to be recyclable also brings with it new issues such as reparability, material efficiency, the use of recycled materials, and the digital product passport. Due diligence obligations and documentation requirements are also on the rise. In addition, there is a tendency in some EU member states to enact national laws where EU legislation is perceived as insufficiently ambitious or slow to respond.
