EPR Registration for plastic waste is mandatory on plastic packaging used in packaging for the import of machinery, furniture, household products, medical equipment, clothes, chemicals, footwear, toys, electronic products, food products etc.
To ensure the disposal of plastic packaging waste, the Plastic Waste Management Regulations 2016 introduce an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) system. Manufacturers, importers and brand owners are then responsible for ensuring that plastic packaging waste is treated through recycling, reuse or disposal.
PIBO refers to producers, importers, and brand owners. If you identify as a PIBO and carry on a business in India that involves the use of plastic packaging, you are subject to EPR obligations irrespective of your turnover or the size of your business.
India's Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change notified changes to PWM rules on February 16, 2022, providing a wide range of guidelines for plastic waste manufacturers, importers, brand owners (PIBOs) and processors shall comply with extended producer responsibility.
