Presented by CA Member Reclay StewardEdge Inc.
As regulatory demands on plastics continue to evolve, compliance with the Federal Plastics Registry (FPR) is top of mind for producers, brand owners, retailers, and importers across Canada. The broad scope of the registry can be intimidating, and the reporting deadline is quickly approaching.
In addition, there may be further changes with a post-election cabinet shuffle scheduled for May 12th, and the new Parliament set to commence on May 27th with a Speech from the Throne setting out the Carney Government’s priorities.
Staying up to date with what’s going on in the “plastics file” will be critical for your business.
Join us on May 29, 2025, for an important session designed specifically for the cosmetics industry, presented by Reclay StewardEdge Inc., Canada’s leading expert in plastics circular economy, compliance and reporting. This session is suited to organizations obligated in phase one (September 2025) or phase two (September 2026) of the registry. It’s also a great starting point for those unsure of when they need to begin reporting.
Learning Objectives
- What the Federal Plastics Registry is and what it means for you
- Which cosmetic and personal care products are captured under the Federal Plastics Registry
- Your reporting responsibilities, timelines, and penalties for non-compliance
- Practical steps to prepare your organization and systems ahead of the first deadline
- Live Q&A with expert FPR advisors
Attend this session and equip yourself – and your organization – with the tools and insight needed to stay compliant – and stay ahead.
Don’t miss this opportunity to future-proof your plastic reporting strategy and report in time for the Environment and Climate Change Canada’s (ECCC) pending deadline.
