Based on the Shared Producer Responsibility principle, the regulations encourage companies to reduce the environmental impact of the packaging they place into the UK market.
If you are an obligated company you have a legal responsibility to register with the relevant Agency and offset your packaging usage.
Alternatively you can register with a packaging compliance scheme, such as that operated by Veolia, who will take on the legal obligations imposed by the Packaging Waste legislation on your behalf, allowing you to concentrate on your core business.
