10 Years of Impact

As the first full EPR program in North America, together with our partners, we have continued to advance environmental outcomes and achieve program objectives and success on behalf of our producer members. Recycle BC is recognized internationally and regarded as a best practice model for full EPR and we look forward to continuing to advance recycling in British Columbia.

We are grateful to live, work, and be in relation with First Nation and other Indigenous people from across many traditional and unceded territories, covering all regions of British Columbia. We value the opportunity to learn and share experiences on this traditional territory. The Indigenous communities were the original stewards of the environment, and they continue to fulfill that role today. We are proud to both collaborate with First Nations as well as commit to that work ourselves.
