FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Producer Responsibility (EPR) is a strategy for environmental protection that aims to integrate the environmental costs associated with goods throughout their life cycles. It encourages manufacturers or brand owners to create markets for material reuse or recycling. The primary goal of EPR is to reduce the total environmental impact of a product’s waste materials.
E-waste recycling is essentially a methodical process of disposing of consumer electronics (CEEW), IT products (ITEW), and other media-bearing assets. The goal is thus to protect data by controlling intellectual assets and adhering to the CPCB’s corporate risk management regulations (Central Pollution Control Board).
MRM provides producers, importers, and brand owners with all of the systems they need to collect the plastic generated by their products in accordance with State Pollution Control Board regulations. We assist in the process of converting segregated plastic waste into a new product or raw material for the production of new products, thereby ensuring the segregation, collection, storage, transportation, processing, and disposal of plastic waste in accordance with Central Pollution Control Board guidelines (CPCB).
