Are you responsible for what you sell?

Boost your business with a product take back scheme

Find out how you can meet the challenge by setting up a voluntary product stewardship scheme, with a focus on returning products for reprocessing.

This workshop will show you how to:

• give your customers ‘end of life’ solutions, not problems
• respond to potential law changes
• return valuable resources into your business

We’ll give you inside knowledge from successful businesses who are already doing this.

You will leave with the right tools to establish your business’ product stewardship potential, build a business case and begin the process.

Are you eligible to attend?

Eligible attendees for these event are people from organisations responsible for the manufacture, distribution or selling of physical products.

If you are not involved in such an organisation but are still interested in attending please email Holly@sustainable.org.nz

The workshop is free. Spaces are limited. Book now!

The focus of the campaign is on voluntary product stewardship schemes and we direct those businesses involved in the Government proposed priority products (tyres, electrical goods, agrichemicals, refrigerants and other GHG’s, farm plastics, packaging) to make a submission on the Ministry for the Environments proposed priority products and priority product stewardship guidelines consultation document.

Financial support for this project has been received from the Waste Minimisation Fund, which is administered by the Ministry for the Environment.
