PixelEdge at Reuse & Logistics Leadership Days 2026
We will be in Berlin as an exhibitor and on a panel – on returnables, data along the chain, and what the PPWR and packaging rules mean for day-to-day logistics. Meet us at smartvillage Berlin.
Why RLLD 2026 matters for returnables and logistics
The Reuse & Logistics Leadership Days 2026 (RLLD), organised by Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg (Foundation for Reusable Systems), bring together voices from politics, NGOs, industry, logistics and retail – on returnables, circularity, and how packaging and transport flows can be organised and evidenced going forward.
The organisers frame the conference around Germany’s planned Packaging Act (VerpackDG) and the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), plus the role of digitalisation, efficiency and circularity. That is the right context for us: we turn capture and data into a reliable basis for returnable containers, empty goods and load carriers – from the dock to controlling.
Anniversary & returnables conference: RLLD 2026 doubles as the professional conference for the 30th anniversary of Stiftung Initiative Mehrweg and is linked with the 4th German Returnables Conference by Deutsche Umwelthilfe – a broad programme of keynotes, forums and masterclasses on regulation, logistics and data standards.
When & where – Berlin, smartvillage
RLLD 2026 takes place on 11 and 12 June 2026 at smartvillage Berlin. According to the programme outline on the organiser’s website, day 1 starts at 10:00 and day 2 at 09:00 (as published at the time of writing; check the site again shortly before the event for the latest version).

We will be on site as an exhibitor. At the stand we focus on concrete use cases: how companies use AI-assisted capture, automated pass-through and track-and-trace to make returnable and empty-goods loops more transparent – and why reliable quantity and movement data become critical as returnable shares grow and capital is tied up in load carriers.
Stand details: We will add the exact stand number and location in the exhibition area as soon as the organiser has confirmed the allocation. You are welcome to book a meeting now – or drop by spontaneously.
Panel discussion
Beyond the stand, we are part of a panel discussion. We relate our practical perspective on digital capture and the data chain to the themes RLLD addresses: from EU and national regulation through operational returnable processes to data quality and interfaces – and what that means for day-to-day operations.
We will publish the session title, time and stage here once the programme is released. Follow us on LinkedIn if you want short-notice updates.
Note: Software can support transparency and processes; it does not replace individual legal or compliance review of the PPWR, the German Packaging Act (VerpackDG) or other obligations. For a factual overview of PPWR and returnable logistics, see our article PPWR & returnable logistics.
