Estara offers a structured suite of services that cover the full EPR compliance cycle — from first obligation assessment through to ongoing annual management and audit defence. All services are available independently or as part of an annual back-office retainer.

Base your Compliance on Exact Metrics, Not Estimates

Guessing your packaging weights leads directly to overpaying your provincial eco-fees. We physically audit, weigh and verify your packaging down to the milligram.

The High Cost of "Rough Estimates"

Many brand owners and first-importers rely on vendor speculation or outdated spec sheets to report their material weights. If you over-report your rigid plastics or fail to correctly separate components like adhesives or liners, you are needlessly inflating your annual PRO invoices. If you under-report, you risk severe non-compliance penalties.

What We Do

01

Turnkey Physical Audits

Ship your product samples directly to our team. We physically dismantle, weigh and catalog every layer of your packaging - from primary containers to shipping pallets.

02

Component Breakdown

We isolate and define specific material types (e.g. HDPE vs. PET, paperboard vs. laminates) to match exact PRO tariff categories.

03

Baseline Verification

We upload these verified physical weights directly into your MyEstara profile giving you an unassailable baseline data set that is completely audit-ready.
