What is EPR Registration for tires ?
The Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for Tires Certificate is an authorization issued by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) that makes tire manufacturers, importers, and brand owners responsible for the proper collection, recycling, and disposal of waste tires. This certificate ensures that companies comply with environmental regulations by managing End-of-Life Tires (ELTs) in a safe and sustainable way, rather than allowing them to be dumped or burned, which can cause serious pollution. Holding an EPR certificate demonstrates a company’s commitment to environmental protection, resource recovery, and the promotion of a circular economy, while also fulfilling mandatory legal requirements.
