Independent B2B commodity brokerage connecting European SMEs with vetted, FSC-certified global packaging manufacturers.
Compliance Manifest — EU PPWR (Reg. (EU) 2025/40)
A working summary of the obligations that turn compliance from a paperwork formality into a market-access gate. Not legal advice — confirm specific figures with counsel.
PFAS Threshold
Food-contact packaging exceeding 50 ppm of total fluorine — the so-called forever chemicals — becomes illegal to place on the EU market. A blanket brake on a class of substances pervasive in grease- and water-resistant treatments.
Documentation Trap
Mandatory EU Declarations of Conformity (DoC) backed by rigorous technical files. Importers bear full legal liability, with traceability obligations running upstream to converters and raw-material suppliers.
Void-Space Rule
Strict caps on empty-space ratios for e-commerce and transport packaging, forcing a massive continent-wide box redesign and a structural reset of tooling, kraft consumption, and SKU libraries.
Value Proposition
We sit between the regulated European buyer and the long-qualified global manufacturer — collapsing risk, documentation, and discovery into a single accountable counterparty.
PPWR readiness is built into every quote — DoC structures, FSC chain-of-custody, and fluorine thresholds assessed before a sheet is cut.
A curated network of audited converters in Türkiye — bypassing blind marketplace risk and month-long supplier discovery.
No factory equity, no inventory bias, no undisclosed margins. Commission representation keeps incentives aligned with the buyer’s outcome.
European SMEs gain institutional-grade sourcing leverage without retaining an in-house international trade and trade-law function.
How we work with you
Begin with sourcing representation today; add merchant delivery when your volumes justify a single counterparty.
We act as your embedded international procurement arm.
You tell us the spec, the volume, and the deadline. We qualify the FSC-certified converter, structure the PPWR-compliant technical file, hold the DoC thread end-to-end, and route the order to a verified factory. You contract directly with the manufacturer; we hold the documentary and compliance spine so the goods clear EU customs without amendment.
A single counterparty, single currency, single invoice.
For buyers who would rather not contract internationally, we take title of the goods and deliver under the Di Domenico International umbrella — managing logistics, customs clearance, duties, and final-mile handover. You receive a branded corrugated programme with one commercial entity on the invoice and one phone number to call when something moves.
Contact
Direct, founder-led engagement. No ticketing system, no channel partners — your enquiry reaches the desk that runs the supplier network.
