Plastic waste has become one of the biggest environmental concerns in India. Every day, businesses generate tons of plastic packaging, and managing it responsibly is no longer optional. To address this issue, the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has made EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) mandatory for businesses dealing with plastic packaging.

If you manufacture, import, or sell products with plastic packaging, you may need CPCB EPR Registration. This guide explains the complete registration process, eligibility, required , and compliance requirements in simple language.

Plastic Waste EPR Registration is an approval issued through the CPCB EPR Portal that allows businesses to comply with India's Plastic Waste Management Rules.

Under the EPR framework, companies that introduce plastic packaging into the market are responsible for ensuring that the same quantity of plastic waste is collected, recycled, or disposed of in an environmentally safe manner.

The objective is to reduce plastic pollution and encourage recycling across the country.
