Electric shavers are covered under the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework in India. This means that manufacturers and importers of electric shavers are responsible for collecting and recycling end-of-life electric shavers.
There are a number of benefits to EPR for electric shavers. First, it helps to ensure that electric shavers are properly disposed of and recycled, which can help to protect the environment. Second, EPR can help to reduce the amount of waste that is sent to landfills. Third, EPR can help to create jobs in the recycling and reuse sector.
To obtain EPR authorization for electric shavers in India, manufacturers and importers must meet certain requirements. These requirements include:
Once a manufacturer or importer has obtained EPR authorization, they are required to collect and recycle a certain percentage of end-of-life electric shavers. The percentage that must be collected and recycled varies depending on the type of electric shaver.
EPR is an important policy that can help to protect the environment and create jobs. If you are a manufacturer or importer of electric shavers in India, I encourage you to learn more about EPR and how you can obtain EPR authorization.
