News release

Description: ERA NPC started operationalising its Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Scheme in November 2021.  As from then, ERA has worked on making EEE Producers in South Africa aware of the EPR Regulations through a large number of online seminars, bilateral meetings and through its website. This kind of work was critical as the level of Producer compliance with the new EPR Regulations to date is extremely low, and because the resources required for building effective e-waste management derives from Producer's compliance in reporting their placed on market data and paying the EPR Levies that flows from these reports.

As we move into our second year of operation, we have started working on setting out our initial network of WEEE drop-off points across the country, recruiting WEEE collection and recycling service providers, holding discussions with municipalities for extending WEEE management infrastructure as well as assessing how informal WEEE collectors can be integrated.

ERA's public/business information campaign is to be boosted in the week of 3 October 2022 through an article to be included in the Enterprise Africa publication.
