INSPIRINGPACKAGINGRECYCLING

FOREWORDS

“The foundations of EXPRA rest on the belief of delivering quality waste management services to all citizens, which are embedded in a sustainable and global waste management vision.

FOREWORDS

Today, within Europe and globally, the linear “take-make-waste” patterns

of production and consumption are considered to have had detrimental

effects in relation to climate change, resource efficiency and

environmental protection. The solution to these challenges is a circular

economy where resources are used in an efficient and sustainable way.

The Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is an essential part of this

approach which the European Commissioni has recognised in the

recently published Circular Economy Package.

The Extended Producer Responsibility Alliance (EXPRA) currently

embraces 26 members from 24 countries. These include 17 EU Member

States (Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland,

Greece, Hungary, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Romania,

Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden), Bosnia and Herzegovina,

Canada, Iceland, Israel, Macedonia, Norway and Turkey. Every year, our

members, on behalf of the obliged industry, recover and recycle over 18

million tons of packaging, and provide over 210 million inhabitants with

packaging collection, sorting and recycling infrastructure.

EXPRA’s members, owned and run by the obliged companies, offer

waste management solutions based on the EPR principle. In so doing,

they operate on a not-for-profit model since their activities are driven by

the industry’s public service mission of acting in a socially-responsible

manner. This allows EXPRA to deliver services of general economic

interest that are both cost and resource-efficient.

Over the past four years, EXPRA has become THE voice of EPR

schemes in Europe. Our organisation has been recognised as a key

stakeholder by the EU institutions, the obliged industry, business

associations and NGOs alike. Since 2013, EXPRA has developed studies

and position papers aimed at sharing expert knowledge with European

audiences, including policy-makers, in the field of both EPR and

packaging waste management.

This brochure explains EXPRA’s principles and values, its structure and

activities. It also provides key facts and figures relating to members’

activities as well as EPR best practice.

We would like to thank everyone involved in the production of this

publication, which, we hope, you will find of interest.

BEST PRACTICES FOR PACKAGING EPR

The of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is based on the

principle that so-called ‘obliged companies’ take responsibility

for the end-of-life management of the products they put on the

market. For (household) packaging, EPR ensures that the entire

packaging chain is optimized and that packaging is developed

in a more sustainable manner.

“Below you will find an outline for how EPR organisations can achieve the best environmental and economic results.

To achieve the best results – both economically and

environmentally — the EPR organisation should be owned by the

obliged companies and run on a not-for-profit basis. The table

below outlines what EXPRA considers as ten key principles for

EPR.

The essence of EPR is the producer’s responsibility for a product throughout its life cycle

EPR compliance schemes should be run and steered by the obliged companies

1.

2.EPR compliance schemes should be not-for-profit / profit-not-for-distribution

Collectors, sorters or recyclers of waste should not be active as EPR systems

3.

4.There should be a strong EPR legal framework enforced by public authorities

Successful EPR must be based on a partnership between public authorities and EPR providers

5.

6.There should be a level playing field for the provision of EPR services in a given territory

Obliged companies should receive equal treatment and share the allocation of EPR costs

7.

8.The industry-owned EPR organisation should pursue a public service mission

EPR organisations should support obliged companies to improve the environmental performance of their products and packaging

9.

10.


1. 2.THE ESSENCE OF EXTENDED PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY (EPR)According to the Organisation for Economic

Co-operation and Development (OECD ), EPR is “an

environmental policy approach in which a producer’s

responsibility for a product is extended to the

postconsumer stage of a product’s life cycle”.

It means that companies who put products on the

market are obliged to collect and recycle these products

and their packaging once they have reached their

end-of-life stage. In this sense, it can be seen as a

practical way of implementing the ‘producer pays

principle’.

In order to ensure that the products and their packaging

are appropriately dealt with once they become waste,

the obliged companies set up an EPR organisation to

finance, organise, and co-ordinate the collection and

recycling of the waste, using the services of licensed

waste management companies.

The obliged companies receive a mandate from the

authorities to shift their individual responsibility to the

EPR organisation, which then becomes responsible and

organizes the practical implementation.

THE EPR ORGANISATION SHOULD BE RUN AND CONTROLLED BY THE OBLIGED COMPANIES

The EPR organisation should be founded, run, financed

and controlled by the obliged companies themselves. It

is the best guarantee to ensure the lowest cost to

society and that the scheme will be both sustainable

and compliant with environmental and legal objectives.

When obliged companies financing the EPR

organisation are sitting in the boards and committees of

this organisation they have the control about the

expenses for all operations of the EPR organisation and

will keep them in their own interest to the necessary

minimum.

Moreover, they can agree to dedicate funding to

necessary long term projects like education campaigns

to increase the long term performance of the system

which would not be run in case of multiple systems

competing just on price.

To achieve this, the obliged companies should not only

pay a contribution to the EPR organisation, but they

should also be actively represented in the EPR

organisation.


3. 4.NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANISATIONThe EPR organisation should be a not-for-profitor profit-not-for-distribution body. There are several

reasons why this is the preferred structure:

• It ensures non-discrimination among all of the obliged

companies. A distribution of profit to the founding

members/shareholders would constitute discrimination

against non-shareholders.

• It also ensures that small and medium size

participants receive full and equal service and that

the EPR organisation does not just focus on big clients.

• It ensure that every obliged company has a right to join

the system and is not been refused.

• It ensures that the interests of the

consumers/inhabitants are served and that general

interest objectives such as education, prevention, and

communication will be pursued. This is especially

important in the case of household packaging. Any

for-profit company will make all possible efforts to avoid

these costs which are – on a short term scale – not

necessary to fulfill the minimum targets of the

respective legislation.

WASTE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES AND/OR INVESTORS

CANNOT BE EPR ORGANISATIONS AND VICE VERSA

The natural inclination of investors and waste management

companies in an open market is to maximise profit and grow

market share – a method that strives for the highest price per

tonne of collected and recycled material. Moreover, investors

and waste management companies have an interest in

increasing the amount of packaging put on the market. This, of

course, is contrary to the legal objectives of the waste hierarchy

and thereby creates a conflict with serving the public interest.

The focus of the EPR organisation on the other hand is to fulfil

the obliged company’s obligations in the most efficient and

effective way possible. In other words, at the lowest possible

cost for the obliged companies and society in general. The

EPR organisation should work in close collaboration with the

local authorities and negotiate and tender in an open market

for collection, sorting, and recycling services.

The legal framework should be set up in such a way that the

role of waste management companies is focused on and

restricted to the supply of the highest quality services. On the

one hand, waste management companies should not

interfere in the execution of the EPR. On the other, the EPR

organisation should not enter into the collection, sorting, and

recycling process itself. Both parties have a distinct and

separate role to play in the fulfilment of the EPR – preferably

based on a close partnership.


5. 6.STRONG GOVERNMENTAL SUPPORT AND MONITORINGPublic authorities have a key role to play in the enforcement of the EPR.

The national legislator should not only create an effective

and efficient legal framework for the implementation of

the EPR, it should also dedicate the necessary resources

to fulfill its objectives. In this respect, special and exclusive

rights can be granted to a single EPR organisation. In any

case the national legislator should set out clear and high

criteria for the accreditation of EPR organisations.

In their auditing role, public authorities should enforce

this legal framework so that it ensures a qualitative

implementation of the EPR, i.e. by using meaningful

enforcement procedures to close loopholes and trace

free riders. The public authorities should also develop

a sound supporting policy. A compulsory

Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) system on residual household

waste can for example work as an incentive for the

inhabitants to sort their household packaging waste.

They should also refrain from establishing any

counter-productive regulations or measures such as

packaging taxes and deposit schemes which could

impede the execution of the EPR.

ROLE OF MUNICIPALITIES/LOCAL AUTHORITIES

A close partnership between the local authorities and

the EPR organisation, based on mutual trust, is a

condition sine qua non for the success and the

environmental sustainability of the EPR.

Municipalities have several roles to play. Many of these

roles depend upon the product/waste flow itself.

For example, when the flow concerns household

packaging for high-volume, fast moving consumer

goods, municipalities play an important role in the

set-up and management of door-to-door collections

and/or bring or collection point centers.

In this respect, local authorities and the EPR organisation

have to agree on the most appropriate collection

system, taking into account both local particularities and

conformity with national and European requirements.

The local authorities and the EPR organisation should

also actively cooperate in local public communication

and awareness programmes, data gathering and

monitoring, the control of the waste management

operators, and the tendering for collection services.


7. SINGLE OR MULTIPLE EPR ORGANISATIONS?Having a single EPR organisation responsible for a national territory – organising the collection and recycling

of a product category for all obliged companies within

national boundaries – has many advantages.

A single EPR organisation ensures that:

• The government can execute effective

andefficient control.

• Obliged companies are treated in anon-

discriminatory manner.

• An efficient functioning of the market is created,

enabling the lowest societal cost for collection,

sorting and recycling.

• Effective national and local awareness and

communication campaigns are run.

• Reliable data on the collection, sorting, and recycling

of packaging waste can be obtained.

When multiple EPR organisations are in simultaneous

operation, it should be noted that the principle of

competition regarding the collection of household

packaging seldom functions ideally.


This is because those who receive the service

(inhabitants) do not choose the EPR organisation

(which is selected by the obliged companies).

In countries with multiple EPR organisations – in some

cases up to 40 in the same country – it has been

observed that the organisations tend to cherry-pick. That

is, they concentrate on the easiest material to collect and

recycle. Moreover, public authorities have greater difficulty

monitoring the EPR organisations and the obliged

companies and to avoid and penalize free riding.

Also, for each authorized EPR organisation it becomes

more or less impossible to monitor the reports of those

obliged companies participating in their system as they

might participate with remaining packaging in another

EPR organisation. Therefore, usually the number of free

riders in countries with multiple EPR organisations is

higher than in a country with a single organisation.

Competition must however be assured at the level of the

waste management activities, meaning on the level of

collection, sorting and recycling, which represent over 80%

of a successful EPR organisation’s total cost.

In any case, EPR should never be reduced to a shopping

list of a large number of so-called EPR organisations

owned by waste operators and investors, making profits

at the expense of and to the detriment of the obliged

companies, the environment, and society in general.

8. 9.SUSTAINABLE FINANCING BASED ON JOINTFINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITYThe EPR organisation must be set up in such a way

that all necessary finances are provided for an effective

implementation in compliance with the legal

framework. The financial contribution of the obliged

companies should also be significant enough

compared to the total cost. This gives them a strong

position in discussions with local authorities regarding

the most appropriate collection system to be employed.

The financial contribution of each obliged company

must be calculated based upon the amount and type

of packaging they put on the market and the real cost

of operations – including awareness campaigns and

potential revenues from the secondary raw material

market. This ensures that all obliged companies receive

equal treatment and share a fair allocation of the costs.

PUBLIC SERVICE MISSION ANDPROCUREMENT PROCEDURES

The EPR organisation should pursue – as part of its

statutory purpose – a public service mission regarding

the collection, recovery, and recycling of household

packaging waste. This means the organisation should

serve a higher purpose – realising an environmentally

and economically sustainable recycling society, which

benefits the inhabitants of the country.

In this respect, the EPR organisation should engage itself

in raising awareness about sorting and recycling among

the inhabitants and provide support for educational

programmes. It should also develop adequate

programmes and actions for ‘away from home’

consumption of household packaging waste.

The EPR organisation should implement transparent

and efficient procurement procedures for contracting

waste treatment operators such as collectors, sorters,

and recyclers. It should observe the principles of equality

and neutrality at all times.


10.


PACKAGING OPTIMISATION AND PREVENTION

The EPR organisation should help the obliged

companies to improve the environmental performance

of their products and their packaging by providing advice

and information on packaging optimisation.

Packaging optimisation efforts include improved

design of the combined product/packaging,

guaranteeing the greatest functionality and longest life,

while using safe materials and a minimum of raw

materials and resources.

Through its co-ordination efforts, the EPR organisation

functions as a ‘bridge’ between the obliged

companies and the recyclers. This ensures that the

obliged companies gain insight into the recyclability

of their packaging and enables them to take the

end-of-life treatment into account during the design

of the packaging.

EXPRA WORKING GROUPS

EXPRA has a Regulatory Affairs Committee, three specialised Working Groups anda Communication Platform.These are presented below.

“

The regulatory Affairs Committee (RAC) stimulates uniform, high standard yet practical legislation in the

field of packaging and packaging waste in Europe. The RAC analyses all legislation in Europe that has an

effect on packaging and packaging waste management, and draws and executes strategic plans on the

positioning EXPRA should take.

The RAC also exchanges information with producers and importers of packed products.
