What is Extended Producer Responsibility?

Extended Producer Responsibility for Packaging (pEPR) is an environmental policy approach whereby a producer’s responsibility for packaging is extended to the post-use stage. It aims to reduce unnecessary packaging and increase packaging reuse, incentivising the design, choice, and use of more sustainable packaging materials and reducing the amount of packaging sent to landfill and energy from waste. pEPR is a reform of the old UK Packaging Waste Regulations.

Who needs to comply with UK packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (pEPR) regulations?

The regulations require businesses that are obligated to report data on the packaging they handle and supply onto the UK market. pEPR also requires producers to pay the full net costs of the collection, sorting, recycling, and disposal of household packaging. For many, this represents a significant cost, particularly for organisations with high volumes of packaging or complex supply chains.

Currently, not all businesses are impacted by UK EPR regulations. To be obligated, a business must meet a set of criteria. 

Large business

This applies if your turnover is over £2 million and you handle more than 50 tonnes of packaging annually. You must report your packaging data and pay the full collection and disposal costs for your household packaging.

Small Organisations

Applies if your turnover is between £1 million and £2 million with over 25 tonnes of packaging, or if your turnover is over £2 million with 25 to 50 tonnes. You only need to report your data - you do not have to pay disposal fees.
