Join Our Presentation: Data Collection Best Practices

We’re excited to share our expertise during the presentation, “Data Collection Best Practices: What to Collect, How to Get It, and What to Do With It,” on Tuesday, April 29, from 9:45 AM to 10:30 AM in Room 501 Chiwawa. Collecting packaging data to comply with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws requires seamless coordination and communication among a wide range of stakeholders. Missteps in the data collection process can lead to inaccuracies, delays, and non-compliance risks.

Our EPR data experts at RLG will guide you through essential best practices to streamline data collection. You’ll gain insights into proven strategies for minimizing errors, improving data reliability, and ensuring timely submission of your packaging reports. Whether you’re new to EPR or looking to enhance your existing processes, this session provides valuable tools to set you on the path to successful compliance.

Engage in Our Guided Networking Session

Don’t miss our guided networking session, “Weighing your Options for Packaging EPR Compliance,” on Monday, April 28, from 3:00 PM to 3:45 PM in Room 302 Beckler. This collaborative session invites stakeholders affected by packaging EPR laws to connect and share how their companies are structuring compliance obligations.

We’ll explore the pros and cons of various compliance methods, helping you determine the best path forward for your organization. Plus, take part in a fun networking activity related to packaging data—perfect for CPG brands, retailers, and any entity responsible for reporting packaging data under EPR laws.
