Evnia, a leading North American consulting firm specializing in environmental stewardship and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
More than a logo, our expertise
To mark the occasion, Evnia is unveiling a commemorative logo featuring a stylized lightbulb, along with the tagline: “lighting the way to compliance for 20 years.” A new promotional video campaign also spotlights members of the Evnia team turning on a symbolic light—representing their commitment to guiding companies out of the shadows of complex regulations and into clarity.
“This new logo and our video campaign are a perfect metaphor for our business model: for 20 years, we’ve been illuminating the path for companies striving to do better for the environment—by giving them the tools, expertise, and clarity they need to navigate the regulatory complexities of EPR programs.”
— Marlène Hutchinson, President and Founder of Evnia
A steady growth
Founded in 2005 under the name Cycle environnement, the company has grown and innovated continuously. What began as a small firm focused on waste management has evolved into a major player in North American environmental stewardship, now supporting over 60 companies in managing their EPR fees across Canada and the United States. In addition to offering tailored EPR management services, the firm developed an innovative software solution to simplify reporting processes. Its founder has also received recognition, including the 2021 Quebec Businesswomen Award from the Réseau des Femmes d’Affaires du Québec in the category of certified women-owned businesses.
The year 2024 was particularly successful for Evnia. The company earned prestigious B Corp and SOC 2 Type II certifications, was named one of Canada’s fastest-growing companies by The Globe and Mail, was featured in L’actualité’s Growth Leaders list, and entered a strategic partnership with UL Solutions to extend its expertise into the U.S. market. Evnia also received a “Mention” at the prestigious Prix performance Québec.
“We’re entering this new decade with the same passion that’s driven us since day one: delivering concrete, human, and effective solutions to simplify EPR management. Thanks to our dedicated team and our clients, Evnia’s future is brighter than ever.”
— François Parent, General Manager of Evnia
Evnia is now accelerating its expansion into the U.S. market, where several states are implementing new EPR programs. The company aims to play as pivotal a role there as it has in Canada, providing specialized expertise and proven tools to help obligated producers ensure full compliance.
