Importing Extended Producer Responsibility For Electronic Equipment Into The United States, Chad Raphael, Ted Smith
Importing Extended Producer Responsibility For Electronic Equipment Into The United States, Chad Raphael, Ted Smith
Communication
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy approach that holds manufacturers accountable for the full costs of their products at every stage in their life cycle. EPR typically involves requiring that producers take back their products at the end of their useful lives, or pay a recycling contractor to do so, thereby internalizing the costs of recycling or disposal in a manufacturer’s bottom line. When companies know that they will bear the costs of product return and recycling, they are more likely to redesign their products for easier and safer handling at each step in the life cycle. This approach …
