EPR · Compliance

Medical device importer — EPR registration & compliance

EPR registration obtained from CPCB

An importer of medical devices and healthcare products needed EPR compliance for plastic packaging waste in India. We assessed EPR applicability, prepared and submitted the registration via the CPCB portal, developed an action plan for collection and recycling, and coordinated with authorized recyclers and PROs.

FAQ

Common questions

Quick answers about scope, timelines, and how this engagement runs.

Ask us directly

EPR applies to all producers of plastic, e-waste, and battery-containing products. Most medical devices and packaging fall under one or more categories.

DPIIT recognition is for startups seeking tax and procurement benefits. EPR is a separate regulatory obligation under CPCB for producers of certain product categories.

Targets are calculated as a percentage of your annual sales by weight. The percentage increases year on year per the EPR regulations.

Non-compliance can result in financial penalties and restrictions on continued operations. We track your progress monthly and adjust PRO commitments accordingly.

Usually yes — we work with PROs that have nationwide collection networks. For specialised categories we may engage 2–3 PROs for full coverage.
