What is EPR Registration?
EPR stands for Extended Producer Responsibility. Extended Producer Responsibility/EPR refers to the responsibility of the management of disposal of those products once labeled as no longer useful by the consumers. Our main objective is to develop an easy and effective system that takes care of collection, segregation, and transportation of the material to the waste disposal facility which is approved by MPCB and CPCB as a professional agency. These materials are also used in Cement Kilns, pyrolysis, road construction, and recycling center on the basis of their quality.

EPR Registration for Plastic Waste:
Plastic has many uses, and due to its physical and chemical properties lead to huge commercial use and success. The indiscriminate disposal of plastic has, become a major environmental threat. In particular, plastic carrying bags are the main contributors to littered waste and, every year, millions of plastic bags end up in the atmosphere as well as in the soil, water bodies, etc.
