What is EPR?

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a new type of law in the US that makes brands responsible for the packaging they put into the world. Under EPR, companies must collect, format, and submit packaging data to each relevant state, then pay fees based on the types and amounts of packaging they use.

First adopted in Europe and Canada, EPR was designed to shift the financial burden of waste management from the public sector to producers.  All fees will go towards funding state-run recycling programs to improve waste collection infrastructure.

Non-compliance may have serious implications for brands including:

  • Fines up to $25,000 per day in some states
  • Sales bans and prohibition from selling products in regulated markets
  • Public listing as non-compliant
  • Reputational damage and business disruptions
