This proposal asks our Company to evaluate extending our responsibility for our packaging beyond the point of sale and through to the packaging’s end-of-life. Some opportunities to achieve this could include using less plastic, exploring reusable and package-free alternatives, and making sure that the disposable packaging we do use is always collected and recycled.

The solution to this recycling disparity is Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), whereby producer corporations that make the packaging (bottles, bags, wrap, etc.) finance the collection and recycling of their packaging at its end-of-life.
