SAP Responsible Design and Production (SAP RDP) is a flagship product from SAP that allows producers to easily abide by Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations, manage plastic taxes, and bring about positive change in design. In light of growing international laws, EPR mandates, and plastic taxes, businesses require a solution that will help them maintain compliance while also reducing waste. Plastic taxes have already been implemented in the UK and other EU countries. Supporting the goals outlined in the EU Green Deal, which are geared towards reaching 70-100% recycling by 2030, SAP RDP equips organizations with the necessary resources to strive toward a more sustainable future and use conscientious practices and pioneering design techniques.
