Bring confidence to every EPR decision.
Normantics brings your packaging data, business activities and supporting evidence together to assess which UK EPR responsibilities apply, explain each conclusion and prepare clearer records for reporting.
Normantics is currently in development, starting with UK EPR.
The real work happens before the EPR report.
Good EPR reporting starts with knowing what packaging you have, who is responsible, and what evidence supports it.
Materials and weights are only part of the picture. Businesses also need to understand how packaging moves through the supply chain and which activities create responsibility.
When that information is split across spreadsheets, emails, supplier documents and teams, reaching a reliable reporting position can require significant manual interpretation and checking.
Why Normantics is different
Normantics is designed around the decisions behind an EPR report: what packaging exists, which business activity creates responsibility, what evidence supports that position and what still needs review.
Interpret EPR responsibility
Assess packaging against brand ownership, imports, packing/filling, supply arrangements and other business activities to understand which UK EPR responsibilities may apply.
📄 Evidence
Business Activities • Supply routes • Producer functions • EPR Rules
🖧 Responsibility
Support every conclusion with evidence
Connect responsibility assessments to packaging records, counterparties, supporting documents and applicable rules, making each conclusion easier to review and explain.
Documents • Sources • Assumptions • Audit Trail
Connect data to business activity
Prepare stronger reporting records
⊞ Data
📈 Reporting
Bring packaging, product, supplier, customer and activity data together so assessments reflect how the business actually operates.
Identify missing information, maintain a reviewable decision history and prepare structured records for EPR reporting.
Packaging • Products • Counterparties • Activities
Validation • Review • Export • Reporting
Start with the documents you already have
Packaging information is often spread across product specifications, invoices, contracts and supplier declarations. Normantics is being developed to extract relevant EPR information, link each finding to its source and highlight gaps or uncertainty for review.
✧ AI-assisted Onboarding - In development
Users remain in control: extracted information is reviewed before it is added to packaging records or used in a responsibility assessment.
Information Normantics could identify:
Packaging components, materials and weights
Organisations, products and transaction details
Brand ownership, imports and supply arrangements
Evidence sources, dates and missing information
Less manual setup.
Clearer evidence.
Faster preparation for EPR reporting.
What Normantics gives you
Normantics does more than organise packaging information. It creates a clear, reviewable picture of your EPR responsibilities, supporting evidence and reporting position.
EPR responsibility assessment
An assessment of which UK EPR producer functions apply, based on your packaging, business activities and supply arrangements.
Threshold and weight position
A structured view of the company information and packaging weights that affect your EPR reporting threshold position.
Evidence and review status
Clear evidence status, recorded assumptions and prompts for information that is missing, uncertain or requires further review.
Structured reporting records
Validated packaging and activity records prepared for checking, review and export as part of the EPR reporting process.
A clearer EPR position, supported by the data, evidence and reasoning behind it.
How Normantics works
Build the data foundation
Record or import products, packaging components, materials, weights, counterparties and supporting evidence.

Data foundation

3
Assess EPR responsibility
Connect packaging to business activities and supply arrangements so Normantics can assess producer functions and surface questions requiring review.
Activity mapping
Review and prepare
Resolve missing information, check evidence and decisions, and prepare structured records for EPR reporting and export.
Reporting readiness
See the decision behind the report
Normantics shows which EPR responsibilities apply, how each conclusion was reached and what evidence or further review if required.
OUTCOME
Responsibility applies
Normantics identifies the business as the brand owner because it supplies filled packaging under a brand that it owns.
Evidence status
Supported - two linked sources
Further review
Confirm whether any private-label variants are supplied under a customer-owned brand.
The output is not simply a result. Normantics preserves the facts, evidence, reasoning and unresolved questions behind every responsibility decision.
EXAMPLE ASSESSMENT
Brand owner responsibility
Information reviewed:
The business supplies filled packaging in the UK.
The packaging carries a brand owned by the business.
The relevant product and supply arrangement are recorded.
Supporting ownership and packaging evidence is linked.
Built for businesses that need a clearer EPR position
Normantics is designed for UK organisations handling packaging across products, brands, imports and supply arrangements that need to understand their responsibilities before preparing reporting records.
✅ Brand owners, retailers and product businesses
Assess packaging supplied under brands you own or license, including own-label and private-label arrangements, with product information and evidence linked to each responsibility decision.
✅ Importers, distributors and packaging suppliers
Understand how import routes, ownership, customer status and the supply of empty packaging affect where responsibility sits as packaging enters and moves through the UK market.
✅ Packers, fillers and manufacturers
Connect packaging components to packing, filling and supply activities, including unbranded packaging, so assessments reflect how packaging is handled and supplied in practice.
✅ Online marketplace operators
Assess responsibilities arising when businesses established outside the UK supply packaged goods or empty packaging through your marketplace.
✅ Businesses with complex supply chains
Review mixed brands, imports, third-party arrangements, multiple counterparties and incomplete evidence without losing the reasoning behind each conclusion.
Particularly suited to businesses that have outgrown internal processes and spreadsheets, but do not want to outsource the entire compliance process.
A different approach to EPR compliance
Businesses can manage EPR internally, rely on external specialists or use Normantics to bring responsibility interpretation, evidence and reporting preparation into one reviewable system.
Internal teams
Internal knowledge and control
Internal teams retain full control and bring valuable product, supplier and commercial knowledge. Responsibility interpretation, evidence management and reporting preparation depend on the expertise, time and systems available internally.
Familiar tools • Full ownership • Internal capacity
Specialist advice and support
Guided interpretation and control
External support
SELF-MANAGED APPROACH
SERVICE-LED APPROACH
PLATFORM APPROACH
Normantics
Advisers and compliance schemes can interpret requirements, review packaging information and support or manage reporting. The process still depends on reliable data, clear evidence and an ongoing service relationship.
Normantics connects packaging data, business activities, supply arrangements and evidence in one guided workflow. It assesses which EPR responsibilities may apply, explains each conclusion and highlights gaps before structured records are prepared for reporting.
Interpretation • Evidence • Control • Reporting
Specialist input • Assurance • Delegated support
Where Normantics fits
Normantics provides a software-led route between manual self-management and fully service-led compliance. It brings responsibility interpretation, packaging data, evidence and reporting preparation into one reviewable workflow, while allowing internal teams and advisers to apply judgement where needed.
Built for what comes next
Extend packaging records to capture recyclability classifications, supporting evidence and the information needed for RAM assessments and future fee modulation.
RAM and recyclability
PPWR & future reporting needs
Connected business systems
Reuse structured packaging, supplier and evidence records to support PPWR readiness and adapt as UK and international packaging-reporting requirements evolve.
Connect Normantics with ERP, product information, document-management and other business applications to reduce duplicate entry and keep packaging records aligned.
Normantics is starting with UK EPR, with a packaging data and evidence model designed to support wider requirements as the platform develops.
