Two EPR levers matter most: fee modulation + measurement discipline. Together they turn “end of life” into a design constraint (like safety or warranty risk). Full article: bit.ly/3P1PRVP #DesignForRecycling #EPR

Rethink packaging today for a waste-free tomorrow. 📦♻️ Smarter design. Better recycling. Real impact. #eWASA #GoCircular #SustainableFuture #ReduceReuseRecycle

Small, simple swaps = big cuts in packaging waste over time. This week’s 6 practical changes: 🧼 bar soap/refills 🧴 cleaner concentrates 🥬 loose produce + reusable bags 🍱 containers > cling film 🚰 reusable bottle + cup 🔁 returnable/refillable packaging

LCA data transforms compliance into innovation, helping you design products that cost less, perform better, and reduce environmental burden. That's the future of manufacturing. #Sustainability #EPR

Who is a “Producer” under SA EPR law? The definition drives registration, reporting & fees, and gets complex in franchises & multi-entity groups. Decision trees + real-world scenarios: ewasa.org/are-you-a-prod… #EPR #Compliance #SA

Today, eWASA attended the Waste Pickers meeting in Meadowlands, Soweto. We spoke about how waste pickers can stay healthy and safe while recycling, because the working conditions are often hazardous.

Did you know? Manufacturing typically accounts for the largest environmental impact in most product lifecycles. By optimizing your production processes through LCA insights, you can significantly reduce both emissions AND operational costs. #EPR #LCA

🌍 Rethinking eWaste this February! ♻️ Proper eWaste management keeps valuable materials in use and harmful components out of the environment. Let’s review our practices! #eWASA #eWasteAwareness #FebruaryFocus #Sustainability #CircularLiving

Bread tags are made from HIPS (PS #6) and can be recycled through a clear value chain: collect → drop-off → sort → transport → weigh → recycle → value returned. Keep them clean and dry before drop-off. #Recycling #CircularEconomy
