FAQs
What is EPR?
Extended Producer Responsibility(EPR) is where manufacturers, producer, brand owner, and importers of products are responsible for the environmental impacts of their products throughout the product life-cycle. The most common mechanism is a collect back mechanism whereby items are collected back and sent for recycling to support a circular economy.
Why EPR is important for business organizations?
It is important both a brand and regulatory perspective. In some countries, regulations are in place to ensure producers comply with EPR responsibilities. Failure to comply could lead to penalties etc. In India for example, all related manufacturers have to comply with the new plastic waste management rules 2016. The regulation requires almost all companies with a plastics footprint to put into place a collection mechanism to ensure that amount of plastics collected is similar to the amount generated – resulting in a net zero impact to the environment. In 2020, the collection requirement is 50% and in 2020, it is 100%.
