NYPSC Mission

The New York Product Stewardship Council, or PSC, works to implement the principles of product stewardship in New York State and nationally.

These policies have many benefits:

Defining
Product Stewardship

A strategy that employs financial incentives to engage manufacturers in the management of a product at the end of its useful life.

This policy approach seeks to relive local governments of the expenses related to managing specific product at its end of life by engaging the responsibility of the producer.

The premise of EPR is rooted in the fact that manufacturers have the greatest control over the products design and marketing, and therefore much greater influence on the ability to reduce toxicity and increase recyclability.

For Future Generations

Making products safer for people and the planet, from design to disposal.
