Extended producer responsibility (EPR) is a policy that was recently introduced in the Plastic Waste Management rules in 2016. This holds manufacturers, e.g., plastic waste producers, responsible for the treatment and disposal of their end-of-life products. In EPR, companies are encouraged to create markets for recycling or reusing waste materials in order to minimize the total environmental impact of these materials from a product. The policy targets can be set either on the number of plastic waste collected or weight of plastic waste processed.
