Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Services
If your business imports, manufactures, or sells products in Italy involving packaging, electrical and electronic equipment (EEE), or batteries, you are likely subject to Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations.
We provide an end-to-end EPR compliance service — registration, reporting, and management of regulatory responsibilities under Italian and EU environmental law.
What is Extended Producer Responsibility
EPR is a legal framework holding producers and importers responsible for the entire lifecycle of their products, including waste collection, recycling, and disposal.
In Italy and the EU this requires:
- Registration with the relevant EPR compliance schemes (Consorzi)
- Reporting of product and packaging volumes placed on the market
- Payment of eco-contributions or environmental fees
- Compliance with waste traceability and recovery targets
Italy-Specific EPR Obligations
- CONAI — packaging waste
- RAEE — waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE)
- COBAT / CDCNPA — batteries and accumulators
Our EPR Compliance Services
We work with non-EU businesses, e-commerce sellers, distributors, importers, and producers.
- Assessment of EPR obligations based on product types
- Registration with the relevant Italian consortia (CONAI, RAEE, etc.)
- Ongoing reporting of packaging, electronic, and battery volumes
- Management of eco-contributions and fee payments
- Document archiving and audit support
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Many marketplaces (e.g. Amazon) require proof of EPR compliance, particularly for packaging and electronics.
Non-compliance with Italian EPR rules can lead to:
- Heavy fines and penalties
- Customs blocks or import bans
- Platform suspensions (e.g. Amazon, eBay)
- Legal exposure under environmental laws
