now a new government decrees on production packaging recycling responsibility officially takes effects today may 25th
2
and under the decree companies producing or important goods such as food domestic cement pharmaceuticals
3
and fertilizers must meet mandatory recycling targets the targets will increase
4
every three years with a maximum increase of 10 per cycle
5
businesses will be required to contribute to the Vietnam Environmental Protection Fund to support waste collection and treatment efforts.
6
Companies must also submit annual delegations via the National Extended Producer Responsibility
7
or EPR system before April 1st and complete payment by April 20th.
8
Exemptions apply to export only goods and businesses with annual revenue below 1.2 million U.S dollars.
9
being vietnam's latest extended producer responsibility epr relation decrease 110 is expected to provide much clearer guidance on how producers
10
and importers must take responsibility for the products
11
and packaging they place on the market
12
and furthermore covering a wide range of items from packaging
13
and tires to batteries electronics
14
and lubricants the decree is seen as a key step in turning Vietnam's green growth ambitious into practical business action.
15
Decree 110 sets mandatory recycling rates and methods for different products and packaging.
16
For example, if a beverage company places 100 tons of PET plastic bottles on the market each year,
17
it must recycle at least 22 tons.
18
Recycled output must also become usable.
19
In recent years, EPR regulations have opened up new opportunities for Vietnam's recycling industry.
20
At Xuetan Plastics, recycled plastic output more than doubled,
21
from 10,000 tons in 2024 to 23,000 tons a year later,
22
mainly driven by rising demand from companies seeking to fulfill their EPR obligations.
23
With EPR, businesses can see the market potential of the recycling industry.
24
This encourages them to invest in modern machinery,
25
equipment and technology to recycle more efficiently and create greater value, especially environmental value.
26
Collection and recycling are important steps toward a circular economy,
27
but circularity also needs to begin at the design stage.
28
A sterilized carton package is typically made of three main materials,
29
paper for structure, a thin aluminum layer to block light and oxygen,
30
and polymer layers to protect the liquid inside.
31
However, aluminum and polymer are difficult to separate for recycling.
32
To address this, new packaging designs are replacing the aluminum layer,
33
reducing polymer use and increasing the paper content to 90%.
34
This helps reduce waste from the design stage and makes post-consumer recycling easier.
35
We use renewable polymers made from by-products of the paper industry combined with post-consumer recycled polymers.
36
Use packaging can be recycled into polymer materials for the production of new packaging,
37
forming a circular solution.
38
As Vietnam integrates into the global economy and participates in the Global Plastics Treaty,
39
there are several key requirements.
40
Each country must focus on collection, sorting and recycling.
41
They must also increase the use of recycled plastic in final products and reduce product weight to save input materials.
42
According to the Ministry of Public Security's Environmental Police Department,
43
Vietnam generates around 3.5 million tons of plastic waste each year,
44
but only 33% is recycled.
45
The International Finance Corporation estimates that Vietnam loses nearly $3 billion US annually by not fully recycling domestic plastic waste.
46
If properly handled, plastic waste can become a valuable resource.
47
And joining us now on Newsline to discuss did UEPR regulation and the impact on Vietnam's recycling industry is Mr Jonathan Surentha,
48
co-chair of the Green Growth Sector Committee at Eurocharm Vietnam.
49
Thank you for joining us today.
50
Now what makes Decree 110 a key step in putting Vietnam's EPR rules into practice?
51
It's a very important step for Vietnam.
52
The 2020 law of environment laid the foundation of the EPR
53
but it remained very high level and left many practical questions open for business.
54
Degree 110 transforms that framework into fully operational enforceable system with detailed rules on responsibility,
55
recycling targets, compliance methods, and digital reporting.
56
This is a moment where EPR moves from policy to daily business reality.
57
Measurable, auditable, and predictable.
58
The clear assignment of responsibility,
59
especially when we meet a complex supply chain,
60
importer, brand owner, contract manufacturers,
61
corporate groups, companies can now accurately map their volumes and understood specific products to be recycled.
62
So what business opportunities could EPR create and how ready is your companies to comply?
63
For recycler, they are assured demand and fund support,
64
financing the capacity expansion and everything
65
that will be recycled will find a buyer for the waste collector
66
and aggregator it will have to have a formalization and long-term contract with
67
producer and for the packaging producer it is a completely new opportunity with mono materials
68
designed for recycling and high recycling content products.
69
Regarding the readiness of all this sector, it's very diverse.
70
We have large European companies and multinational that are reasonably prepared and have starting pilots already.
71
But we see that SMEs still face gaps in data infrastructure.
72
From what we saw, it's only about 40% of the companies that already have implemented data collection and prepare for the EPR.
73
So what changes to the 2020 Law on Environmental Protection would help drive Vietnam's recycling industries in circular economy? economy?
74
What we would like to see is strong focus on segregation at source to improve material quality.
75
As well, we need the financing for infrastructure.
76
The formalization of the informal sector, it's a must.
77
We see that many informal workers are not secure in collection and segregate the waste.
78
We also like to see a stronger incentive for using recycled content in new products.
79
It can be tax-bred, green procurement,
80
or an innovation fund for SMEs to implement EPR.
81
We would like to expand as well the support for PRO,
82
public-private partnerships, and a clever rules for cross-border recycled materials and green financing.
83
Thank you, Mr. Shureen Tha for your insight.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
