The REP industries have proven their usefulness for the prevention and treatment of waste from certain types of products. What are the objectives of EPR? There are three main objectives for sectors with extended producer responsibility: 1. develop the recycling of certain waste and increase the recycling performance of this waste; 2. free local authorities from all or part of the waste management costs and transfer funding from the taxpayer to the consumer; 3.
