What Is EPR?

 

 

01

Producers (and other actors like importers and brand owners) assume the responsibility for the environmental impact of their products and cover the costs for (in some cases organize) collection, sorting, and treatment of post-consumer waste.

02

By enforcing accountability and responsibility upon manufacturers throughout the entire life cycle of their products, the EPR framework fosters the adoption of sustainable and circular practices.

 

 

03

It incentivizes producers to create products that are more easily recyclable and to minimize excessive packaging.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)?

    Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is an environmental policy approach that holds producers accountable for the entire lifecycle of their products, including the collection, recycling, and disposal of products after they have reached the end of their life.

    Any producer, importer, or brand owner who manufactures or sells products that contribute to waste streams (like plastic packaging, electronics, and other consumer goods) must comply with EPR regulations. This includes businesses that manufacture goods within the country as well as those that import goods for sale.

    Doko Recyclers helps businesses comply with EPR regulations by offering comprehensive waste management solutions. We assist with collection, transportation, recycling, and proper disposal of products, especially for packaging, electronics, and other materials covered under EPR regulations.

    EPR programs typically cover packaging waste (plastic, glass, paper, metals),and electronic waste (e-waste such as computers, mobile phones, and batteries).

    We work with businesses to set up customized EPR systems that ensure they are fulfilling their environmental obligations. This includes waste audits, designing take-back systems, creating recycling solutions, reporting data, and ensuring compliance with government regulations.

     EPR helps businesses reduce their environmental footprint, enhance brand reputation, and ensure compliance with local environmental laws.  It also promotes sustainable practices and can enhance consumer trust as an environmentally responsible brand.
