Expertise in Plastic Waste Management
Plastic pollution can occur at every stage of the life-cycle, including production, usage, and final disposal. Serious problems may occur in area where no proper collection and management. Plastic waste is a consequence of the manufacturing, utilization, and elimination of plastic products made from either a single type of resin or multiple types of resin, along with paper and/or metal.
These tiny microplastics function as miniature sponges, containing a variety of chemicals that are absorbed. Plastic presents a continuous crisis for human and planetary health, necessitating immediate global intervention. Not only are humans affected, but ocean ecosystems are also suffering. Studies have demonstrated that plastics can disrupt the reproductive capabilities of animals, posing significant threats to our food chain and the communities dependent on these ecosystems for their sustenance.

This mandate provides various functions and duties which must be fulfilled by them otherwise they were liable for strict majors that might be taken against them.

The Government of India introduced EPR for Plastic Waste Management which is governed by Plastic Waste Management Rules 2016. This defines “the responsibility of a producer for the environmentally sound management of the product until the end of its life.”
While EPR authorization holds great promise for enhancing plastic waste management, several challenges must be addressed for effective implementation:

The plastic packaging categories included in the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) are as follows:
Category I: This includes rigid plastic packaging.
Category II: This category covers flexible plastic packaging, which can be single-layered or multilayered. It also includes plastic sheets, covers, carry bags, sachets, and pouches.
Category III: Multilayered plastic packaging is included in this category, which consists of at least one layer of plastic and at least one layer of material other than plastic.
Category IV: This category includes plastic sheets or similar items used for packaging, as well as carry bags made of compostable plastics. For more detailed information, please refer to the EPR Guidelines (Section 5).
Explicit pricing of carry bags.- Shop owners and street vendors who wish to offer plastic carry bags must first register with the local authorities. Within six months of the rules being published in the Official Gazette of India, the local body will establish a system for registration. A plastic waste management fee of at least forty-eight thousand rupees, or four thousand rupees per month, must be paid by the registered individuals. The local body has the authority to set a higher fee based on sales capacity. Registered shop owners must visibly indicate that plastic carry bags are available for purchase. Only those who are registered are permitted to provide plastic carry bags. The funds collected from customers for the bags will be used solely for waste management initiatives within the local area.
