What is EPR E-Waste?

Extended Producer Responsibility EPR E-waste is the responsibility of every producer of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) for channeling e-waste to an authorized dismantler/recycler to ensure environmentally sound management of such waste.

EPR authorization is mandatory and has to be obtained by all the producers, including importers, e-retailers/online sellers/e-bay, etc. of EEE covered in E-Waste. A producer can implement its EPR either through a take-back system by setting up collection centers or both to channel e-waste/end-of-life products to authorized dismantlers/recyclers.

The producers are required to have arrangements with authorized dismantlers/recyclers either individually or collectively or through a Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) or E-Waste Exchange system as spelled in their EPR Plan, which is approved/authorized by Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).

These rules apply to every producer, consumer or bulk consumer, collection center, dismantler, and recycler of e-waste involved in the manufacture, sale, purchase, and processing of electrical and electronic equipment or components specified in Schedule 1 of these Rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

E-Waste Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a policy framework that holds manufacturers, importers, and sometimes retailers of electronic products responsible for the entire life cycle of their products, including collection, recycling, and proper disposal of electronic waste.

Under E-Waste EPR, manufacturers and importers are obligated to finance and/or manage the collection and recycling of electronic products at the end of their useful life. This typically involves setting up collection points, recycling facilities, and ensuring the safe disposal of hazardous materials found in electronics.

E-Waste EPR is important because it helps prevent environmental pollution and health hazards caused by improper disposal of electronic waste. By holding producers accountable for their products throughout their life cycle, EPR encourages better product design, recycling, and resource conservation.

Manufacturers, importers, and sometimes retailers of electronic products are primarily responsible under E-Waste EPR. These entities are required to take financial and operational responsibility for managing the electronic waste generated from their products.
