EPR Resources

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) in the automotive aftermarket refers to regulations that hold manufacturers and importers accountable for the entire lifecycle of their products, including end-of-life disposal.

EPR often includes managing the collection, recycling, or safe disposal of automotive parts like batteries, tires, and fluids. For aftermarket businesses, it means adapting to new compliance requirements and ensuring products meet evolving environmental standards.

These quick references, guides, toolkits and webinars help producers, brand owners, distributors and retailers in the aftermarket understand and comply with EPR laws for packaging and products. New to EPR? Start with “Are you the Producer?” and the packaging timelines, then dig into the guides, toolkits and webinars. Most resources are for Auto Care members on the Digital Hub; items marked “Free for everyone” are open to all.
