Beyondly provide an efficient, bespoke way to fulfil your packaging obligation. As your dedicated compliance partner, Beyondly will help you root packaging regulations into your business, acting as a committed extension to your team.
What is packaging EPR?
The Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Regulations 2024, require businesses that are obligated to report data on the packaging they handle and supply on to the UK market.
EPR requires producers to pay the full net costs of the collection, sorting, recycling, and disposal of household packaging.
From 2025, the main pEPR regulations are due to be in full force, replacing the 2007 Producer Responsibility Packaging Waste Regulations. Obligated producers will have a PRN (Packaging Recovery Note) obligation for both household and non-household packaging placed on the UK market, and an EPR disposal fee obligation for household packaging placed on the UK market.
Beyondly can support you navigate the increasing data requirements, understand your packaging recyclability and navigate the changing policy landscape.
