Corrugated Box Industry Opines on EPR

摘要

The Fibre Box Association (FBA) released a position statement for the U.S. corrugated box industry on extended producer responsibility (EPR), saying that it supports voluntary paper and paper-based packaging recovery efforts and seeks to improve upon the existing recovery and recycling programs in the U.S.There are several EPR requirements in Europe and heightened awareness of environmental issues has led to EPR initiatives in North America, with some Canadian provinces leading the way.
