For each jurisdiction or international body an overview of each policy is shown on a global map or accessed directly from the country-by-country menu.

Using the pyramid-principle, users can drill down to view specific content covering – news items, an in-depth jurisdiction reports and review of key organisations, and further to the underlying legal texts and analysis.

Jurisdiction reports, separated by policy, identify legislative developments and detailed requirements, the resulting 'compliance markets' and environmental and economic outcomes.

Policy developments are covered from drafting stage of legal text onwards and incorporated into other content sections as they progress. Analysis of texts according to the impact on stakeholders, notably producers.

Additional Special Reports provide multi-country comparisons or in-depth analysis of a specific topic or legislation introduction such as EU-level transpositions or product specific reports.

Monitoring activities follow prospective legislative introductions, market developments and stakeholder intentions to give an early warning to affected parties and offer a trigger for further research.

WEEE

The design, take-back & recycling of EEE are regulated to varying degrees in 100+ jurisdictions & legislation is advancing in 50+ jurisdictions. The original EU Directive (2002/96/EC – largely in force by 2005) was revised in 2012, expanding the scope & changing the targets.

BATTERIES

At EU level, the design, collection and treatment of all battery types are regulated through Directive 2006/66/EC. An extensive revision is forthcoming. Typically considered as hazardous waste, battery take-back is regulated to varying degrees in close to 80 jurisdictions.

PACKAGING

Packaging is often the first product subjected to EPR and its collection and recycling is regulated in 60+ jurisdictions. The EU Packaging Directive 94/62/EC was revamped in 2018 through the EU Circular Economy Package. Recyclability & re-use are being increasingly regulated.

SUPs

Plastic pollution is currently at the forefront of waste management & marine protection policy and single-use plastics are being increasingly regulated world-wide. EU-level restrictions and EPR requirements on SUPs were introduced through the SUP Directive ((EU)2019/904).
