Extended producer responsability (EPR)
Manufacturers and importers of consumer goods need to take collective or individual responsibility for the environmental impact of their products. New European developments reward eco-design and prevention in the categories already regulated (motorcars, electrical and electronic equipment, batteries, tyres and packaging) and extend this instrument to new typologies (textiles, footwear, different uses of plastic, etc.). This instrument puts pressure on the suppliers of materials, parts and components in the value chains of the above product categories.
