Navigating Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) as a B Corp

About this event
As global environmental regulations tighten, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the policy approach that holds producers accountable for a product’s entire life cycle, is shifting from an end-of-life packaging management best practice to a legal necessity. For purpose-driven businesses, navigating this evolving landscape can feel like a moving target.
Join B Lab and Horizon Organic for a session designed to demystify EPR and equip your business for what’s ahead. We will give an overview of what EPR means for the B Corp community, explore how these emerging regulations intersect with the B Corp Standards, and introduce the specific tools B Lab offers to help find synergies between the legislation and your B Corp Certification. You’ll also hear directly from B Corps, like Horizon Organic, already navigating EPR. They’ll share their first-hand challenges, strategies for success, and how they’ve turned regulatory compliance into an advantage.
