style=\"margin-top:16px\">What is Extended Producer Responsibility?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Extended Producer Responsibility \u2014 commonly known as <strong>EPR<\/strong> \u2014 is the UK system designed to make organisations responsible for more of the environmental cost of the packaging they place on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Businesses that supply or import packaging may have obligations under the regulations, depending on factors including the size of the organisation and the amount of packaging it handles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These obligations can include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>registering with the appropriate environmental regulator;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>collecting and submitting packaging data;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>identifying the type and material of packaging supplied;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>determining whether relevant packaging is household or non-household packaging;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>meeting packaging recycling obligations; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>for obligated large producers, paying applicable packaging waste disposal fees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is that accurate packaging data is becoming increasingly important.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow

sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:16px\">Why does household packaging matter?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under EPR, certain waste disposal fees are associated with packaging that enters the household waste stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means a packaging supplier may need to understand not only <strong>what it sells<\/strong>, but also <strong>where that packaging ultimately ends up<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That can become difficult when packaging is supplied business-to-business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you might supply packaging to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>a manufacturer;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>an online retailer;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a wholesaler;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a food producer;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a fulfilment company; or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>another commercial organisation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of that packaging may remain entirely within a commercial environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some may ultimately be supplied with products to consumers and enter the household waste stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knowing the difference can be important when assessing and reporting your packaging data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow

class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:16px\">You know who you supplied. But do you know where the packaging went next?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your sales records can tell you which customers purchased packaging from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They may not tell you what those customers subsequently did with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A customer might use all of your packaging for business-to-business distribution. Another might use exactly the same packaging to send products directly to households. A third could do both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trying to establish this manually across hundreds or thousands of customers can be time-consuming, inconsistent and difficult to manage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>EPR Survey provides a structured way to collect that information.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How EPR Survey works<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Provide your customer information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You securely provide the details of the customers you need to survey, together with the relevant packaging categories or information required for the exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. We contact your customers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">EPR Survey sends professionally presented communications explaining why the information is being requested and asking customers to complete a short online survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Customers tell us how the packaging is used<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The survey asks customers to provide information about the destination and use of the packaging they purchase from you, including the proportion that is ultimately supplied to domestic users where appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Responses are collected and monitored<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We provide a consistent process for collecting responses, tracking participation and identifying customers who have not yet supplied information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. You receive structured evidence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The results give your organisation a clearer, documented picture of how customers use the packaging you supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This information can then support your internal EPR assessment, packaging reporting processes and discussions with your compliance advisers or compliance scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Better evidence. Better packaging data.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">EPR Survey has been designed around a simple principle:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Packaging businesses should be able to make reporting decisions based on evidence rather than assumptions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our surveys help create a documented information trail between packaging suppliers and their customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can help your organisation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>understand the destination of packaging supplied to business customers;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>distinguish between different packaging use cases;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>identify packaging that may ultimately enter household waste streams;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>reduce reliance on broad assumptions;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>maintain records supporting your packaging classifications;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>improve the quality of information available to your EPR team;
