Companies that supply batteries, Blue Box materials, electronics, hazardous and special products (e.g., paint, automotive materials), lighting, or tires in Ontario are obligated under the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act, 2016 (RRCEA) to recycle or reuse their products and packaging when consumers are finished with them.
Companies must report to RPRA every year the amount of material they supply into the Ontario market, and their performance meeting the recycling and reuse targets set out in the regulations issued under the RRCEA.
RPRA publishes reported data annually. Published reports do not contain commercially sensitive information.
What data is posted
- Supply: The weight of materials supplied into the Ontario market.
- Resource recovery requirement: The weight of materials producers are required to collect and recycle or reuse.
- Recovery requirement reduction: The reduction to the overall recovery requirement based on specific criteria outlined in each regulation.
RPRA publishes data for each program as soon as possible after reporting deadlines have passed. Data may be unverified and is subject to change as audit and verification activities and compliance inspections unfold.
