Packaging regulations are rules set by governments to ensure that products are packaged safely and responsibly. These regulations often focus on materials used, labeling requirements, and environmental impact. They aim to protect consumers, prevent contamination, and promote recycling and sustainability. Different countries have their own specific packaging regulations. For example, the European Union has strict guidelines on plastic waste and encourages the use of recyclable materials. Companies must comply with these regulations to avoid penalties and ensure their products can be sold in various markets.
