Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Advisory

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations are rapidly evolving on both sides of the Atlantic. In the European Union, EPR has matured into a standardized framework, with the upcoming Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) set to unify enforcement across all member states. Countries like France, Spain, and Portugal are expanding EPR requirements to include packaging labeling, commercial waste, and transparency on environmental impacts. Meanwhile, in the United States, EPR remains a patchwork of state-level initiatives where various Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs) are central to EPR implementation. Maryland and Washington recently joined a growing list of states enacting EPR laws for packaging, while others like Maine and Colorado are refining existing programs. Although federal legislation remains stalled, over 30 states have implemented or are developing EPR laws covering products from packaging to electronics and textiles. This divergence creates both compliance challenges and strategic opportunities for companies operating in both regions. 

Any company that manufactures or sells packaged goods, especially those operating in multiple regions or where EPR regulations are in place, can benefit from our EPR advisory service. We help you understand your obligations, reduce compliance risks, and improve your sustainability profile. 

You can expect improved regulatory compliance, reduced EPR-related fees, and enhanced brand reputation through sustainable packaging practices. Our services also help you identify cost-saving opportunities through eco-modulation and life cycle assessments (LCA) depending on the region and PRO. 

The timeline varies depending on your company’s size and needs, but initial assessments and compliance roadmaps can typically be delivered within a few weeks. 

We offer a holistic approach that combines regulatory expertise, environmental science, and strategic consulting. Our team provides actionable insights and a wealth of industry and sustainability expertise that goes beyond basic regulatory compliance. 

We follow strict data security protocols and ensure all client information is handled in compliance with relevant privacy and data protection regulations. 

Our support includes regulatory analysis, packaging assessments, PRO engagement strategies, and ongoing advisory to adapt to changing laws. We might recommend additional services that could save on fees through demonstration of lower impacts through an LCA or verification of recycled content/recyclability. 

Pricing is based on the scope of services and company size. We offer flexible packages to meet the needs of both small businesses and large enterprises. 

Due to the nature of this service, we do not offer demos or trials. However, we do provide a free initial consultation where we can provide sample assessments to help you understand how our EPR service can benefit your organization.
