Marketplace Sellers Solution
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is an environmental policy that makes producers responsible for the entire life cycle of the products that they introduce on the market, from their design until end of life (including waste collection and recycling).
Under EPR regulations, liable companies must mitigate the environmental impacts of their products throughout the entire product life cycle.
Starting in Austria on January 1, 2023, Marketplaces must confirm that are complying with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations in the country where they are selling.

Industrial packaging is
- packaging that is not household packaging,
- paper packaging that meets the definition of transport packaging,
- pallets and strapping and adhesive tapes, and
- the proportion of packaging which in principle meets the definition of household packaging but which, by the packaging classification ordinance, is considered to be transport packaging.

- contains one or more sales units which are sold together to the final consumer or serve only to stock the sales shelves, and
- can be removed without affecting the characteristics of the goods.
