EPR Glossary
Product category
A classification used to place products within an EPR regulatory framework.
What does Product category mean?
A product category classifies products according to the rules of an EPR stream or a specific regime. It is not automatically the same as an internal product group or item master code.
Why does this matter for EPR?
Categories can affect which obligations, data, fees, targets or reporting positions are relevant.
How Eprify handles it
Eprify separates general product data from regulatory categories and keeps their mapping traceable.
Note: This glossary explains terms in general and does not replace a legal assessment of a specific case. The applicable market, product, role and current legal framework always matter.
