Environmental data on products
Guide to recording environmental data on products in Shoporama. Enter packaging, electronic waste (WEEE), and battery information for EPR compliance.
Shoporama allows you to record environmental data on your products. This is relevant for EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) compliance and gives you an overview of packaging, electronic waste (WEEE) and batteries in your assortment.
Activate environmental data
You can find environmental data when editing the individual product in the Environment etc. section. Check Enable environmental data for this product to open the fields.
Packaging
Enter the weight of the packaging per unit by material (in grams):
- Paper/cardboard
- Plastic/plastic
- Metal/metal
- Glass/glass
- Wood/wood
- Other material
The system automatically calculates the total packaging weight.
Electronic waste (WEEE)
If the product is electronic, you can specify:
- Weight - Weight of the device in grams (excluding battery)
- WEEE category - Select the correct category, e.g. large household appliances, IT equipment, lighting, toys, etc.
Batteries
If the product contains a battery, you can specify:
- Battery weight - The weight in grams
- Battery type - E.g. lithium-ion, alkaline, nickel-metal hydride, button cell, etc.
- Integrated - Whether the battery is integrated or removable
EPR registration number
You can enter your EPR registration number (from e.g. Emballageretur, Elretur or Batteriretur) directly on the product. It can be used for reporting and documentation.
Import and export
Environmental data can be imported via CSV import of products. Use the columns env_enabled, env_packaging_paper, env_packaging_plastic etc.
You can also export a total environmental report for sold products under Orders → Export environmental data. Here you enter an order period and get a CSV file with all environmental data multiplied by quantity sold - ready for reporting.
Tip to use
Use CSV import to mass register environmental data on many products at once, instead of filling it in manually on each product.
