EPR compliance for Packaging 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 Packaging business must register for
You put these on the market — so each of these applies. Start with your primary obligation.
As a manufacturer, this is where your EPR starts — registration, targets and returns, handled for you.
See how we handle it →Believing the obligation passes entirely to the brand owner — the manufacturer has a parallel registration.
What triggers it: Rigid & flexible plastic packaging · Films, laminates & preforms · Caps, closures & containers
What EPR actually looks like for packaging manufacturers & converters
Converters and packaging manufacturers are producers under Plastic Packaging EPR in their own right, distinct from and parallel to the brands that fill their packs. Categorising output correctly across Cat I–IV — rigid, flexible, multilayer and compostable — is where accuracy, and target exposure, are decided.
From “are we liable?” to audit-ready — for packaging manufacturers & converters
We confirm exactly which EPR streams and roles apply to a packaging 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.
