EPR registration, targets and returns, without the guesswork.
Extended Producer Responsibility makes the companies that put products and packaging on the market responsible for what happens to them at the end of their life. In practice, that means registering with the Central Pollution Control Board, meeting yearly collection and recycling targets, and filing returns that prove it.
EPR now covers several product streams, each with its own rules and portal. Missing a target or a filing can lead to environmental compensation, so it pays to get the set-up right.
Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 for PIBOs and plastic waste processors.
E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 for manufacturers and producers of EEE.
Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022 for producers of all battery types.
EPR under Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules for waste tyres and used oil.
