The Household Packaging and Paper Stewardship Program Regulations govern the end-of-life management of household packaging and paper supplied or distributed to Saskatchewan households by businesses. If your Saskatchewan-based organization supplies or distributes packaging or paper to Saskatchewan households, then your organization may be obligated by the regulations.
The packaging and paper regulations recently went through a review and engagement process, resulting in amendments to the regulations. The Household Packaging and Paper Stewardship Program Regulations, 2023 came into effect on March 31, 2023. The new province-wide program will be implemented by SK Recycles in phases. The existing Multi-Material Recycling Program will continue to be in effect in until the new province-wide program for packaging and paper is fully transitioned.
