New EPR rules in California

• California has adopted Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations across a very significant number of product categories such as packaging, batteries, textiles, paint, mattresses, carpets, and pharmaceuticals/sharps. The California EPR laws are administered by CalRecycle to register producers and enforce eco-fees plus reporting requirements. This new framework mandates financing by producers for collection and recycling with transparent EPR reporting that will explicitly detail the compliance cost in the prices of products. Companies placing covered products on the California market should carefully review obligations and join or even establish a PRO where required by law besides getting ready for an EPR compliance audit which is more stringent under CalRecycle rules.

Companies must start preparing for mandatory e-invoicing in France by making sure their ERP systems can create organized invoices that follow French reporting rules and connect with approved platforms.
