Introduction
China has formulated or is planning to develop a number of legal requirements affecting packaging of electronic products at the national level. In addition, certain packaging-specific measures are found only in guidance documents such as Packaging and Packaging Waste - Part 1: General Rules of Disposal and Utilization. These Rules provide general, recommendatory guidance for companies regarding packaging and the management and utilization of packaging waste. Many of China's municipalities have adopted bans or recycling mandates for particular food packaging. The Solid Waste Act also contains very general provisions requiring, among other things, that hazardous wastes be placed in suitable containers or packaging and be marked to indicate the presence of hazardous waste. The Clean Production Promotion Law and Circular Economy Promotion Law also provide that enterprises must give preference to innocuous and harmless packaging materials and avoid over-packaging.
