What is the purpose of a representative?

Under the terms of the mandate, the agent may, among other things:

• To assist you in joining an eco-organization;
• Submit the information required for your application;
• Report products or packaging placed on the market;
• Pay the eco-fees or eco-contributions on your behalf;
• Monitor communications with environmental organizations;
• To help you keep your information up to date.

The use of an authorized representative does not transfer the responsibility of the person placing the product on the market. The company remains responsible for complying with its EPR obligations and for the accuracy of the information provided. It is therefore important that the company understand the key rules applicable to its products, packaging, and the relevant EPR schemes, even when it entrusts all or part of these procedures to an authorized representative.
