Regulations, standards and frameworks

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for textiles is transforming how end-of-life textile products are managed. Under emerging EPR schemes, producers become financially and operationally responsible for the collection, sorting, reuse, and recycling of textiles when they reach end of life.

The EU End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) Regulation reshapes automotive circularity from vehicle design through to end-of-life treatment. It introduces binding recycled-content targets for plastics and a pathway to mandatory recycled-content targets for steel and aluminium, stronger design and traceability requirements, extended producer responsibility and tighter controls on vehicle treatment and exports, creating significant implications for vehicle OEMs, suppliers and recyclers.

The ESPR introduces new expectations for product circularity and transparency. Organisations placing products on the EU market will need to prepare for the rollout of Digital Product Passports and enhanced product data obligations. Our experts help businesses navigate these changes and turn compliance into a competitive advantage.

The ECGT will reshape the landscape for environmental claims in the EU, raising expectations around substantiation and consumer trust. Organisations that communicate sustainability credentials will need to ensure claims are evidence-based and aligned with regulatory requirements. We help businesses strengthen claims governance and build a clear roadmap to compliance.

The Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) marks a major change to packaging requirements across the EU. As organisations begin to navigate and implement the new obligations, early preparation is important to minimising disruption and maintaining compliance. Eunomia can help your organisation understand PPWR requirements and build practical strategies for compliance.
