Assent partners with Lorax EPI to streamline supplier data and reporting to ensure compliance with California SB54, Canada's Plastics Registry, and other fast-approaching EPR laws
OTTAWA, Ontario - PrAtlas -- Assent Inc. (Assent), the global leader in supply chain sustainability management, today announced its new Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Packaging solution. The new solution helps manufacturers collect and manage packaging data, making it easier to comply with complex reporting requirements under expanding EPR packaging laws.
Assent has partnered with Lorax EPI to deliver the full workflow solution for EPR packaging requirements, combining supplier data collection and jurisdiction-specific reporting files and fee calculations, bringing packaging data into a single coordinated program. Through this partnership, customers gain visibility into fees, and cost-saving design opportunities.
EPR regulations shift the cost and responsibility of end-of-life packaging management from governments to the companies placing packaged products on the market. In the U.S. and Canada, manufacturers now face reporting requirements that vary widely by jurisdiction. These include state-level EPR laws such as California's SB54, Oregon's SB582, Colorado's HB22-1355, and Minnesota's HF3911, as well as Canada's Federal Plastics Registry, which requires its first filings by September 29, 2025.
