We simplify compliance
Join us for EPR compliance solutions
Created by producers for producers, the European Recycling Platform (ERP) enables these companies to meet environmental obligations under Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) frameworks for waste electronic and electrical equipment (EEE), batteries, packaging and, most recently, textiles.
By passing on the advantages of multinational recycling operations to customers, ERP has proved to be the most competitive and self-oriented solution for compliance, takeback services and waste treatment and recycling in a highly regulated landscape.
Our circular solutions for producers and brands are available across nearly 40 PROs globally, such as Austria, Brazil, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, and the UK.
Founded in 2002 by Hewlett-Packard, Electrolux, Sony, and Procter & Gamble, ERP was the first multi-country solution for EPR compliance as a response to the WEEE Directive.
Today, we are 450+ employees from 30+ nationalities, a community of circular economy experts striving to do business in a different way.
Become part of our global circular solutions driven by simplicity and efficiency!
