Bags and film packaging

Does Cling film around a filled roll (bakery) fall under the EWKFondsG?

Yes

Yes. Cling film wrapped directly around a filled roll intended for immediate consumption is flexible film packaging containing food and falls under bags and film packaging.

Note: Since the UBA administrative regulation of Nov 3, 2025, a de-minimis threshold of 500g of packaged content applies: if the content exceeds this amount, the packaging no longer falls under the EWKFondsG. What counts is the content, not the weight of the packaging itself — and containers sold empty (e.g. empty salad bowls) are covered too. For smaller pack sizes, the classification below still applies. Everything about the 500-gram threshold in detail →

This classification covers the typical use case but doesn't replace a legal case-by-case review — especially with mixed materials, coatings, or unusual pack sizes, the actual classification depends on the specific product. EWKPilot does not replace legal or tax advice.
