Complete EPR solutions for online marketplaces and direct-to-consumer brands

Overview

E-commerce companies face unique EPR challenges including seller-level compliance, packaging EPR for logistics, and private label product obligations. We provide comprehensive EPR management for platforms and D2C brands.

EPR Requirements for E-commerce Companies

Platform vs Seller EPR Clarity

Determine EPR obligations: marketplace facilitators vs individual sellers, and private label products vs third-party brands.

Logistics Packaging EPR

Manage EPR for e-commerce packaging materials: poly mailers, bubble wrap, air pillows, cartons, and protective packaging.

Private Label Registration

Register for EPR as a brand owner for all private label or exclusive products sold on your platform.

Multi-state Operations

Comply with EPR across multiple states and fulfillment centers with varying waste management infrastructure.

Common EPR Challenges

  • Determining EPR responsibility between platform and sellers
  • High volume of secondary packaging (logistics materials) creating large EPR obligations
  • Rapidly changing product catalog making SKU tracking difficult
  • Managing EPR for private labels while ensuring seller compliance
  • Coordinating waste collection across distributed fulfillment network
  • Balancing customer experience (protective packaging) with EPR costs
