What EPR actually looks like for cosmetics & personal-care companies
Cosmetics packaging is small-format and mixed-material — pumps, rigid jars, laminated tubes and sachets — which makes accurate categorisation across Cat I–IV the hard part. Individually small, these add up to significant registered quantities, and the multi-material formats attract the toughest recycling expectations.

We confirm exactly which EPR streams and roles apply to a cosmetics business like yours — no over- or under-registering.
We register you on the right CPCB portal(s) with the correct role and product categories.
We meet your annual recycling / recovery targets via verified channels and file every periodic return on time.
We keep documentation audit-ready so you’re protected from Environmental Compensation.
