EPR Authorization is required for analyzers and accessories. This is because analyzers and accessories are considered to be electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) and are therefore subject to the EPR regulations in India.
The EPR regulations require manufacturers and importers of EEE to take responsibility for the environmental impact of their products, even after they have been sold. This includes the collection and recycling of end-of-life products, as well as the management of any hazardous materials that may be contained in the products.
In order to comply with the EPR regulations, manufacturers and importers of analyzers and accessories must obtain EPR authorization from the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). EPR authorization can be obtained by submitting a number of documents to the CPCB, including:
Once EPR authorization has been obtained, manufacturers and importers are required to collect and recycle a certain percentage of end-of-life products. The percentage of products that must be collected and recycled varies depending on the type of product.
