IPP Pooling published company guidance linking the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation to reusable transport packaging, pallets and load-carrier pooling, and describing how it says its own pooling service can support customers. This is IPP's commercial position and company guidance, not neutral regulatory advice; obligated businesses should confirm their duties against the regulation and official guidance.
