Muraplast manufactures paper bags from paper that has already been placed on the EU market. Muraplast therefore acts as a downstream operator/trader and:

• does not submit a new Due Diligence Statement (DDS) for the manufactured bags;
• does not issue a DDS to customers;
• is not required to include a DDS reference number on invoices or delivery notes.

Where Muraplast directly imports paper from a country outside the EU (around 12 % of total amount), it carries out due diligence and submits a DDS before import. Once the paper has been converted into bags, no new DDS is submitted and the DDS for the imported paper is not required to be passed on to customers.

Customers using the bags to package their own products have no EUDR obligations regarding the bags. Customers reselling empty bags must record Muraplast as their supplier and retain this information for at least five years but do not submit a new DDS.

Muraplast fulfils all applicable EUDR obligations and maintains the required supply-chain documentation.

Due to the new European and Croatian regulatory framework, under which sustainability labels must be based on an appropriate certification scheme or established by a public authority, MURAPLAST has decided to discontinue the use of the MURAECO visual brand.

This decision does not represent a withdrawal from our previous environmental claims. MURAPLAST continues to fully stand behind the claims made for products labelled as MURAECO, including claims regarding recycled content.

All relevant products have been renamed from MURAECO to PSV and included in the Plastica Seconda Vita – PSV certification system. This is an independently certified scheme for verifying recycled plastic content and its traceability, based on the international and European standards EN ISO 14021 and EN 15343.

For products bearing the printed MURAECO logo, customers may choose one of the following options:

• replacement of the MURAECO logo with the corresponding PSV logo, or
• complete removal of the MURAECO logo from the product.

Any costs associated with the production or modification of printing plates required as a result of this change will be covered by MURAPLAST.

For products on which the MURAECO logo is not printed, only the product name will be changed in our documentation. The composition, technical properties, and declared recycled content will remain unchanged.

Regardless of whether a customer chooses the PSV logo or a product without an environmental logo, the claim regarding recycled content will remain valid for all relevant products in accordance with their current specifications.

As the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) gradually introduces harmonised and mandatory requirements for recyclability, recycled content, conformity assessment, and packaging labelling, we believe that additional environmental labels on packaging will become increasingly unnecessary. The PSV logo will remain available as a voluntary option, subject to the customer’s decision and the applicable rules governing its use.

We would like to thank all customers and partners who have accepted and used the MURAECO label over the past years and, in doing so, supported the use of recycled materials and the development of more sustainable packaging solutions.

Customers currently using the MURAECO logo are invited to contact their MURAPLAST representative to confirm whether they wish to replace it with the PSV logo or remove it entirely. Unless otherwise agreed, the MURAECO logo will be removed from future production.

Over the course of this year, Muraplast has increased its extrusion capacity – the production of polyethylene film in rolls used for packaging.

The new installed line is optimized for products such as shrink films, flat FFS films, stretch hoods, and shrink hoods, but can also manufacture other types of products. The line width is 1.800 mm, with an output capacity of approximately 250 t/month. The total extrusion capacity across the entire company now exceeds 2.200 t/month.

Data Center

Muraplast has become the majority owner of the DC North data center in Varaždin. Muraplast now holds a 75 % stake, while Cratis retains 25 %. DC North is currently the largest and most modern data center in Croatia.

Solar Power Plant

Muraplast has acquired a ground-mounted solar power plant in the Jug industrial zone in Kotoriba. The plant has an installed capacity of 715 kWp and a grid connection capacity of 495 kW. With this new installation, Muraplast’s total solar panel capacity stands at 2,412 kWp, with 1,773 kVA of inverter capacity.

Our goal is to use the electricity generated by this solar plant at the Muraplast South location.

This strategic acquisition aligns with MAP 2030 – Muraplast Action Plan for 2030 and will increase the share of our own electricity production.

Other

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) was published at the beginning of the year. It was expected to revolutionize packaging.

We are monitoring all amendments, but for now we can only note that there are too many announced delegated acts—i.e., too many unknowns—to know what specific requirements packaging will have in the near future. More questions than answers remain.

If you have any questions on any topic (including the PPWR), please feel free to contact us.
