Join us on March 20th to hear about EPR regulations in India

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

Speakers:

• Mr. Vikash Garg, AVP – Operations, Rerout Pvt. Ltd.

Now in its third year, Pharma Sustainability Integrates brings together experts, leaders, academics and policy makers from across industry and healthcare to discuss the challenges and opportunities related to reducing the environmental impact of the industry and the wider healthcare system. Featuring keynote presentations, fireside chats and interactive debate-led panel sessions, the agenda will cover policy, strategy, innovation and how industry can play its part in reducing its own Carbon footprint and that of the wider healthcare eco-system.

PSCI Chair Rob Williams will be speaking at the Fireside Chat: Scaling Innovation: Collaborative Solutions for NHS and Global Health Systems.

This fireside chat will explore how can we collaborate and scale beyond the UK’s small market to become a world-leading force in buying sustainably from global supply chains. What role supplier diversity and inclusive supply chains play in ensuring future sustainability, and how we can create a stronger bridge between pharma and healthtech to drive innovation and progress.
