European Textile EPR: What Do the New Rules Change for Textile Recycling ?

What will the new European textile EPR change for recycling? European legislation strengthens Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and is expected to help finance the collection, sorting, reuse and recycling of textiles. But beyond the regulatory framework, the entire value chain needs to become more structured in order to improve the recovery of complex textiles. Discover what these new rules could mean for polyamide recycling and the industrialisation of new textile circularity solutions.
