Understand the requirement
Extended Producer Responsibility is not one universal certificate covering every product or waste stream. E-waste, plastic packaging, batteries and used oil have their own frameworks and registration processes. A business may need to review more than one stream, especially when equipment, batteries and packaging are placed on the market together.
We start by understanding what your business manufactures, imports or sells and where the supporting quantity data comes from. Our support helps make product lists, invoices and internal records consistent enough for a meaningful applicability review. For e-waste projects, this includes mapping the equipment portfolio before assembling the producer-registration information.
Who this service is for
- Manufacturers assessing producer responsibilities
- Importers of electrical or electronic equipment
- Brands with products and packaging in multiple streams
- Businesses preparing their first EPR registration

- Existing registrations and relevant authorisations
- Supporting declarations required by the applicable portal
Frequently asked questions
Can one EPR registration cover every waste stream?
Do not assume so. Each applicable framework and business role must be reviewed separately.
Does registration complete all EPR obligations?
No. Ongoing targets, evidence and reporting can apply under the relevant framework. Registration is only one part of the process.
Will Rombo issue EPR certificates?
No. Registration and compliance-credit processes operate through the relevant authorities and authorised system participants. Rombo provides preparation support.
Important to know
The applicant remains responsible for accurate declarations and compliance. Portal access and official communications should remain with its authorised person.
