Industry leaders unite in call for national packaging EPR reform

Major industry organizations including the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation (APCO), the Australian Council of Recyclers (ACOR0), and the Boomerang Alliance have united in calling for a national Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) approach to packaging. The alignment of these typically diverse stakeholders represents a significant development in the Australian packaging waste management sector, with all three organizations endorsing EPR as the preferred regulatory framework for packaging producers going forward.
