Reuse share calculator.
Put in your own unit counts to see your reuse share today and how many single-use units you have to move into a reuse system for 2030 and 2040.
How the sum works.
- Reuse share
- reusable units ÷ (reusable + single-use units)
- Gap to 40%
- 40% of all units, less your reusable units
- 100% rule
- every single-use unit on those routes
- To move by 2030
- the larger of the two
What to do with the number.
Start with the routes under the 100% rule: between your own sites and to operators in your own Member State. They are closed loops, so those units are the first to track and the first to count.

Written by Rotion.
Rotion is software for reusable packaging: pallets, crates, IBCs and roll cages. It records handovers, balances per partner, trips per item and reuse rates, so you are PPWR-ready. We wrote this guide to be useful whichever tool you choose.

Questions about the PPWR reuse targets.
Which units do I count?
Count the transport packaging formats in Article 29(1): pallets, foldable plastic boxes, boxes, trays, plastic crates, IBCs, pails, drums and canisters. Leave out cardboard boxes and packaging for dangerous goods, which the targets do not cover.
Is this the official method?
No. Article 30 sets the calculation per calendar year, and the Commission lists the implementing act with the method for 30 June 2027. This tool counts units so you can see the size of the gap now.
Is my data stored?
No. The calculation runs in your browser and nothing you type is sent anywhere.
