Recital 25
(25) In order to ensure consistency, performance requirements should complement the implementation of Union law on waste. While requirements for placing on the market packaging as a final product are laid down under European Parliament and Council Directive 94/62/EC (29), this Regulation could complement that Directive by setting product-based requirements that focus on the packaging of specific products when placed on the market. Where relevant, such complementary requirements should contribute in particular to minimising the amount of packaging used, in turn contributing to the prevention of waste generation in the Union.
