Packaging EPR Masterclass

As Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws continue to reshape the packaging industry, staying ahead of these changes is critical for businesses that want to remain competitive and compliant. Our EPR Masterclass Series, hosted by Chris Bradley of Veritiv’s Sustainable Design Lab, is designed to equip you with the knowledge and strategies you need to navigate this new era of packaging regulation. 

In this comprehensive series, you’ll dive deep into the fundamentals of EPR, explore state-specific regulations like those in Oregon, California, and Colorado, and discover how to design smarter, reduce costs, and leverage EPR to create a competitive advantage. 

What You’ll Learn: 

  • EPR 101: The Fundamentals
    Get a clear understanding of what EPR is, how it works, and why it’s set to become a defining factor in the future of packaging. You’ll also learn the basics of eco-modulation fees and how sustainable packaging design can help minimize these costs. 
  • State-Specific Strategies
    Dive into the specific EPR programs in states like Oregon, California, and Colorado. We’ll guide you through how each state is implementing its program, the unique requirements of each, and the opportunities for cost savings through sustainable design. 
  • Packaging Redesign for Compliance and Cost Savings
    Learn how to take advantage of the eco-modulation incentives that reward more sustainable packaging choices. We’ll show you how to design your packaging to pay less by using more recyclable and environmentally friendly materials. 
  • Advanced Design Strategies to Hack EPR
    Gain advanced knowledge on how to leverage EPR regulations to enhance your brand’s sustainability efforts and differentiate yourself in the market. Learn how to make strategic material shifts that align with both regulatory requirements and consumer expectations.

Ideal for Innovators: 

With EPR laws rapidly rolling out across the U.S., every company involved in packaging will soon face new financial obligations and compliance challenges. But instead of seeing EPR as a burden, you can use it as an opportunity to innovate, save costs, and lead in sustainable packaging. 

This series is designed for: 

      • Packaging Designers and Engineers 
      • Business Owners and Marketing Leaders 
      • Supply Chain Professionals 
      • Anyone responsible for packaging within their company

         

You’ll walk away with a clear strategy to prepare for these changes, optimize your packaging, and turn these regulations into a strategic advantage.
