Promoting Responsible EPR: BIR Advocates for Balanced Policies in Recycling and Circular Economy Initiatives

The Bureau of International Recycling (BIR) advocates for responsible Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policies.

Emphasizing the need to avoid disrupting efficient markets, BIR suggests involving recyclers in governing EPR schemes for a balanced approach.

President Susie Burrage OBE asserts that EPR should be implemented judiciously, following assessments of material stream effectiveness.

BIR recommends exploring alternative instruments like mandatory design for recycling and legally-binding recycled content targets to enhance circularity without disrupting markets.

Arnaud Brunet, Director General, expresses BIR's commitment to collaborating with policymakers for effective recycling and circular economy initiatives.
