▬ Why This Market Exists

Virgin material is volatile. Regulation is not.

Manufacturers need reliable material streams while virgin prices swing with global markets. At the same time, India’s EPR framework is converting voluntary recovery into regulated, recurring demand for certified recycled inputs. ReSource sits exactly at that intersection: long-term offtake of quality recycled material that also evidences your compliance.

BUSINESS STABILITY

Supply security

Structured inflow systems deliver predictable recycled material volumes month on month, insulating procurement from virgin price volatility.

MARKET READINESS

Mandated demand

Recycled-content mandates across plastics and non-ferrous metals mean recycled inputs are no longer optional. Certified supply becomes a production requirement.

VERIFIED SUPPLY

Traceability as proof

Compliance now requires evidence. Every ReSource batch carries digital chain of custody through ELIMA OS, from recovery to your dock.

▬ Regulatory Drivers · Policy Tailwinds

Regulation is converting recovery into mandated demand.

India’s EPR regulations now span e-waste, plastic packaging and non-ferrous metals. Each framework requires certificates from registered recyclers, traceable recovery and reporting, and where recycled-content mandates apply, the purchase of recycled material from registered recyclers. Explore each framework below.

How compliance works

Rules effective from 1 April 2023. Producers fulfil EPR obligations through the purchase of certificates generated only by registered recyclers. Targets may be reviewed and increased after year 2028-29.

Impact: Creates recurring compliance demand for formal e-waste recovery and registered recycler certificates, the certificates ELIMA generates through its CPCB-authorised operations.
