Abstract

The European Union introduced the Packaging Waste Management Directive in 1994 which emerged due to the generation of packaging waste as part of the product. The Member States implemented this directive in different systems of compliences. Concurrent with the development of this system, the concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) emerges. The development of PWMS and EPR in conjunction with the changes of approach from stages-based (focusing on one part of product lifecycle) to product-based (focusing on every part of product lifecycle) stimulates the establishment of the Integrated Product Policy (IPP) directive. The IPP directive is also considered as a new initiative from the European Union based on the concept of EPR. This research focuses on the position of the exixting Packaging Waste Management System in a conceptual framework and how it can be improved to fit into the implementation of Integrated Product Policy. The three conceptions were described and analyzed by using explanation building analysis and were integrated into one single framework to set up the position of PWMS in IPP within a conceptual framework and also developed the assesment criteria to be used for evaluating the implementation of The PWMS in Member States. The data were derived from documentation and archival records which were carried out from the text book, report, studies/ articles and original websites. The result of the literature research shows the result that basically, IPP gives a framework for integration of instruments to improve resource efficiency and reduce environmental impact of goods and services throughout product life cycle. In the conceptual framework. PWMS could be considered as one part of measures in IPP implementation. Another result of this analysis was the assesment criteria for case studies, they are legal basis system of compliances, distribution of responsibility and monitoring aspects.
