Suggested Audience: PSCI Suppliers and PSCI members (with operations in India) (People from EHS/Procurement/Packaging (Design and R&D)/Legal functions and departments will benefit from attending this webinar).
About:
Since Feb 2022 India’s EPR framework has enhanced compliance demands on businesses, particularly in sectors such as Pharmaceuticals which deal with plastics as packaging materials. Compliance is a top priority for PSCI and so this webinar is being offered for member and supplier companies to stay updated on the existing and evolving requirements in this space.
As the country moves towards carbon neutrality and net zero targets compliance with EPR regulations facilitates ease of doing business and can be a key differentiator for businesses. This webinar will provide a glimpse of EPR regulations in India with a deep dive into the plastic waste EPR requirements including:
- Plastic Categorization, EPR Targets and Transfer Mechanism
- Marking and Labelling requirements
- Use of Recycled Content and Traceability
- Inclusion of Third-Party Manufacturers under the definition of “Producer”
- Environment compensation/ Penalty / Cost of non-compliance
