Circulad’OR launches Yvora: the 100% Romanian app for PPWR compliance

As of August 12, 2026, PPWR becomes mandatory, and no packaging can be legally placed on the European Union market anymore without technical documentation and a declaration of conformity. Circulad’OR built, with the direct consulting support of Reciclad’OR S.A., Yvora, exactly for this moment: a 100% Romanian application, available at yvora.ro, which automatically generates the entire PPWR compliance file in a few minutes, not days, cutting working time by up to 70%.

Yvora, the only PPWR app in Romania built on the reality of the local market

Yvora is the first application developed entirely in Romania for the operational and strategic management of all requirements under EU Regulation 2025/40 on packaging and packaging waste (PPWR). We recommend it to any company placing packaged products on the European Union market, regardless of size.

Before YVORA (www.yvora.ro), companies managed PPWR compliance through ad-hoc Excel sheets, chains of emails with suppliers, and externally paid consulting billed by the hour — a slow process, hard to verify and almost impossible to keep up to date as the packaging portfolio grows. Yvora is built directly on the real mechanisms of the Romanian market: it manages the EPR register and reporting obligations for each market, reflects local specifics (AFM, SGR/RetuRO) and stays connected to the long-term PPWR process. In practice, every manufacturer, importer or distributor of packaged products, regardless of size, falls under the regulation as of August 12, 2026. For an SME without a dedicated environmental department, the difference between having and not having a dedicated tool isn’t measured only in time, but in risk.

What a company risks if it doesn’t comply in time

Under Articles 15 and 18 of the regulation, manufacturers have a legal obligation to draw up an EU Declaration of Conformity (Art. 39, Annex VIII), accompanied by technical documentation (Annex VII), before placing products on the market. Without these documents, packaging is not considered legally placed on the market. Article 62 allows authorities to ban distribution or order withdrawal from shelves, while Article 68 requires member states to adopt, by February 12, 2027, fines that are “effective, proportionate and dissuasive.” More and more retailers are already requiring suppliers to provide the standardized Annex VIII format before listing products, so a company without it risks losing shelf space, not just paying a fine.

What Yvora offers, in a single subscription

All PPWR requirements, in a single flow — in the order that matters for a manufacturer:

• Declaration of Conformity — automatically generated in the official Annex VIII format, editable at any time, with every version archived (date and full history) and bulk regeneration whenever legislation changes.
• Technical documentation (Annex VII) — built from packaging data, with specifications, exceptions and application deadlines for each field, so the document is properly compiled, not just filled in.
• Detailed packaging sheet — the full structure of each packaging item: components, packaging code, materials, PFAS and heavy metal restrictions.
• Complete databases and archives — the entire file for each packaging item, archived immutably and downloadable as a single ZIP, as proof for an audit.
• Specific reports — article-by-article compliance, PDF/Excel export, audit-ready in a single click.
• Recyclability assessments — an A, B, C or D score automatically calculated under Art. 6, flagging banned or problematic materials.
• Automatic data import/export — the entire portfolio at once, from CSV, ERP or API, from a handful of packaging items to thousands.
• EPR registration across EU markets — reporting obligations for each market, with alerts ahead of every deadline.
• Legal library and eLearning — the legal basis behind every score, with links to official sources, plus certified micro-courses for teams.
• Dedicated consultant included — every subscription includes consulting hours with a PPWR expert who reviews the documentation together with the client, something no generic Excel file or external app offers.

We’re also providing a free public tool: a quick test that lets any manufacturer find out the recyclability score of a piece of packaging, at no cost and with no obligations.

Measurable impact compared to the manual process

With Yvora, we cut working time by up to 70% compared to manual management, maintain 100% data accuracy through a full history, and eliminate undetected compliance risks, with alerts from day one.

“This is the first time a company from Romania has built software dedicated entirely to this regulation, designed from scratch for manufacturers’ reality. We’re not just launching a calculation tool, but an operational partner: the platform generates the documents, archives them, and provides a specialist alongside — not just software. The difference from foreign alternatives isn’t only the price, but the fact that Yvora speaks the language of the Romanian market, literally and bureaucratically.” — Marius Brînzea, Director of Strategy

What’s next: the Yvora roadmap

August 12 isn’t the finish line, it’s the starting line. Yvora updates alongside the regulation, and every new module automatically becomes part of the subscription, at no extra cost, as requirements come into force:

• 2027 — Design for Recycling and packaging minimization (Art. 6 + Art. 10)
• 2027 — EPR fee eco-modulation
• 2028 — Harmonized labeling and the PPWR QR code (Art. 12)
• 2028 — Banned packaging (Art. 25 + Annex V)
• 2029 — Reuse (Art. 29)
• 2030 — Recycled plastic content (Art. 7)

About Circulad’OR and Reciclad’OR

Circulad’OR is the company that developed Yvora, part of the Reciclad’OR group. Circulad’OR built the product with the direct consulting support of Reciclad’OR S.A., the group’s extended producer responsibility implementation organization (PRO), which today manages thousands of active packaging management compliance contracts for companies in Romania. Yvora doesn’t start out as a software startup with no track record, but as the product of a team that already operationally manages the environmental obligations of a large number of Romanian companies — and that built the platform starting from the real problems encountered in this process.
