Extended Producer Responsibility (E.P.R.)
The new legislation, regulations and more coming into the EU and from there will be impacting globally more and more right now and in the years ahead.
EPR is a simple concept but with complex legislation, implementation and country and business sector nuance.
At it’s heart it is about PRODUCERS being held more responsible for their processes, products and outputs – both directly and indirectly.
Key Considerations
- Understanding where it comes from, who it applies and the like future developments.
- It may not impact you directly but it may impact your clients, suppliers, stakeholder and wider business ecosystem.
- It is early in its implementation but has already got real world application and is not just a theoretical concept to be ignored.
- It’s the start of a trend for regulators enforcing the principles and application of Real Circularity™.
