Get your EPR-Authorization for P-Waste

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Authorization for P-Waste, which stands for Packaging Waste, is a regulatory framework designed to shift the responsibility for managing packaging waste from end consumers and local governments to the manufacturers, importers and brand owners of packaged products. It places the onus on these entities to take environmental responsibility for the entire life cycle of their packaging materials, from production to recycling or disposal.

Under EPR Authorization for P-Waste, manufacturers in the packaging industry are required to establish and fund systems for collecting, recycling and disposing of packaging waste in an environmentally responsible manner. This approach is intended to encourage the reduction of packaging waste and promote sustainable practices in packaging design and materials selection.

EPR Authorization programs for P-Waste typically involve collaboration between government agencies, industry associations and relevant stakeholders to define clear responsibilities, set recycling targets and monitor compliance. These programs aim to minimize the environmental impact of packaging waste, reduce landfill usage and conserve resources by encouraging the development of recycling infrastructure and sustainable packaging practices.
