Services
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
Provincial EPR programs require businesses that manufacture, import, or sell packaged products to take financial responsibility for the end-of-life management of their packaging. With active programs across eight provinces, each with their own registration requirements, reporting deadlines, and fee structures, staying compliant is complex. We help pharmaceutical companies register with the appropriate Producer Responsibility Organizations, collect and manage the packaging data required for annual reporting, and submit accurate, compliant reports on their behalf.
Federal Plastics Registry (FPR)
The Federal Plastics Registry requires businesses that manufacture, import, or sell plastic products in Canada to report annually on the plastics they place on the market. For pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, this means tracking plastic across packaging, medical devices, and single-use products. We help clients determine whether they are obligated, understand what needs to be reported, collect and organize the required data, and submit accurate reports to Environment and Climate Change Canada on their behalf.
Sustainable Packaging Audits
We conduct on-site assessments of the waste leaving your facility, sorting, weighing, and quantifying materials to give you a clear picture of your packaging footprint. For pharmaceutical companies managing EPR obligations and sustainability goals, this data is the starting point. It tells you what you’re working with, where your biggest opportunities are, and what your reporting obligations look like across provinces.
Waste Auditing
Knowing what waste leaves your facility is the starting point for regulatory compliance and meaningful sustainability progress. EAG conducts on-site waste audits for healthcare and pharmaceutical facilities, sorting, weighing, and quantifying materials across all waste streams to give you an accurate baseline of what your organization generates, diverts, and sends to landfill.
Sustainability Reporting
Pharmaceutical companies are facing growing pressure from customers, partners, and investors to demonstrate their environmental performance in a clear, credible way. We help clients produce annual sustainability reports aligned to recognized frameworks including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), and Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS), translating your environmental data into a report that is credible, consistent, and useful.
Regulatory Monitoring
Environmental regulations affecting the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector are changing faster than ever. EAG tracks developments across Canadian jurisdictions and keeps you informed so your team is never caught off guard by a new deadline or obligation. Think of it as an early warning system for your compliance program.
Environmental & Sustainability Strategy
Meeting your environmental compliance obligations is the foundation. Building a coherent sustainability strategy on top of that is what separates organizations that react to regulation from those that get ahead of it. EAG works with healthcare and pharmaceutical organizations to develop corporate environmental policies, set meaningful sustainability goals, and build long-term plans that keep pace with a rapidly changing regulatory landscape.
