EcoEx, a start-up in the plastic waste management sector, has launched India’s first digital marketplace to facilitate exchange of plastic credit certificates and strengthen the plastic recycling infrastructure, the firm said in a statement on Wednesday.
Plastic producers, importers and brand owners that use plastic for packaging have been made accountable for managing the end waste, as per the Uniform Framework for Extended Producer Responsibility released by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
The revised Extended Producer Responsibility draft guidelines propose to allow these firms to meet compliance targets by buying ‘plastic credits’ from accredited companies that recycle packaging or co-process the plastic packaging waste.
Nearly a dozen proposals for packaging producer responsibility have been brought forth already this year. Learn how they differ and how they are alike in their strategies.
