Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a key concept for ‘closing the loop’ in the packaging value chain. 

The EPR Toolbox, developed by the PREVENT Waste Alliance, is a collection of internationally relevant knowledge on the topic of EPR for packaging. Its aim is to promote knowledge exchange and enhance development of EPR systems worldwide. It contains detailed training materials on EPR and provides an introduction to a number of distinct issues, such as roles and responsibilities, finance, or collection and recycling of packaging waste. 

Practical country examples and a set of FAQs offer a more in-depth understanding on the complex issue of EPR. The EPR Toolbox is therefore a collection of building blocks that can be adapted and applied to different contexts. It will be available in Vietnamese, Bahasa, Thai and Chinese.
