Extended Producer Responsibility Management

Multiple U.S. states have set imminent Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) compliance deadlines for packaging. California, Colorado, Oregon, Minnesota, Maine, Maryland, Washington, Canadian provinces and EU countries are rolling out EPR programs that demand prompt producer action.

Missed deadlines can lead to hefty fines (up to $50,000 per day in California) and disrupted business. Is your company prepared to meet these new requirements?
