L'organisation de coopération et développement économique (l'OCDE) définit la REP comme une orientation environnementale où la responsabilité des producteurs à l'égard d'un produit, tant matérielle que financière, est élargie à l'étape de la post-consommation du cycle de vie du produit. Une politique de REP comprend deux grands volets : (1) reporter sur le producteur la responsabilité (matérielle et/ou économique, et ce en tout ou en partie); (2) offrir aux producteurs des incitations à prendre en compte l'environnement dans la conception de leurs produits. 1, record 1, French, - responsabilit%C3%A9%20%C3%A9largie%20des%20producteurs
