EPR compliance for Food & Beverage companies,
handled end-to-end.
We confirm exactly what applies, register you on the CPCB portals, then run targets, returns and audits.
Which EPR a Food & Beverage business must register for
You put these on the market — so each of these applies. Start with your primary obligation.
As a brand owner, this is where your EPR starts — registration, targets and returns, handled for you.
See how we handle it →Counting only PET bottles and missing multi-layer/flexible packaging, which is the largest and hardest-to-recycle category.
What triggers it: PET bottles & preforms · Multi-layer pouches & wrappers · Rigid tubs, cups & caps
What EPR actually looks like for food and beverage companies
Beverage PET and Category II/III laminates dominate the footprint here. PET is comparatively recycler-friendly, but multi-layer snack and dairy packaging is where the targets bite — and where quantities are most often under-declared. Registration covers every branded SKU you place on the market, not just bottles.
From “are we liable?” to audit-ready — for food and beverage companies
We confirm exactly which EPR streams and roles apply to a food & beverage 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.
