Extended Producer Responsibility
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach in which producers are held responsible for the environmental impacts of their products throughout their entire life cycle. This includes the design, manufacture, use, and disposal of products. EPR is a way to encourage producers to design more sustainable products and to reduce the amount of waste that is generated.
This concept of EPR shifts the burden of managing and disposing of products from local governments and taxpayers to the producers who create them. It encourages producers to design products that are more environmentally friendly, promote recycling and reuse, and reduce waste generation. EPR programs typically involve the establishment of collection systems, recycling infrastructure, and financial mechanisms to support the costs associated with managing end-of-life products.

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach where producers are held accountable for the entire lifecycle of their products, including their environmental impact and end-of-life disposal. It shifts the responsibility of managing and disposing of products from consumers and local governments to the producers themselves. Producers are required to take responsibility for collecting, recycling, and safely disposing of their products after they are discarded.
Extended Producer Responsibility is crucial for environmental sustainability as it incentivizes producers to design eco-friendly, recyclable products. By making producers financially responsible for their products throughout their lifecycle, EPR encourages waste reduction, minimization of harmful substances, and increased recycling rates. This approach contributes to resource conservation, pollution reduction, and the transition to a circular economy.
Extended Producer Responsibility programs typically cover products such as electronic waste (e-waste), batteries, packaging materials, automobiles, tires, pharmaceuticals, and household hazardous waste. The inclusion of specific products varies by region, based on their potential environmental impact, recyclability, and presence of hazardous substances.
