Extended Producer Responsibility in Indonesia has been contained in Law No. 8 of 2012, however this system has not been implemented, because some stakeholders disagree with the amount of funds to be paid, the basis for determining the amount of funds to be paid, and the duration of the payment. In addition, the payment system or institution that manages the collected funds has not yet been established. Despite many constraints, EPR has begun to be implemented directly by some companies. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> There are some studies that provide EPR as curtailing the consumption of new products and encouraging recycling and disposal of end-of-life (EOL) products , and some provide approaches to the implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility, while some studies using system dynamics model to promote material efficiency in products through increased recycling rates. This study provides a system dynamic simulation to show the relationship between the entities involved in waste management system and is expected to address the problems occurring in the implementation of EPR in Indonesia. The management of aseptic paper packaging waste for dairy products in West Java, was used as a case study due to the number of these products circulating in the region. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Simulation of the system using Vensim PLE x32, will provide results influenced by all the-integrated-and-dynamic entities, so that decision-making related to the application of EPR can be more precise, well-planned and sustainable. We found that , by proposing some scenarios related to EPR funds, the capacity of the recycler could become the reference of the amount of EPR funds to be paid by the company, on the other hand the scavengers or collectors can be empowered so that the triple bottom line (TBL) concept can be achieved. In the end, solution to meet the stakeholders expectations will be generated, where the rates (Collecting Rate and Recycling Rate) will increase while EPR Fund will decrease. <br />
