ACR+ member ENT released an article about the concept of generalised extended producer responsibility (GEPR). The notion of EPR has been part of EU waste policy for a long time. However, the application of EPR is compulsory only for some waste streams. For others, the EU legislation includes a specific mention to the option for Member States to promote EPR.
 
The idea of this article is to suggest the implementation of the concept of GEPR, whereby all products put into the market -all of them likely to become waste at some point- would be subject to EPR.
