New EU regulations under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) will enforce stringent design standards for items like textiles, furniture, and electronics to enhance durability, repairability, and recyclability. The aim is to curtail wasteful consumption and promote a circular economy. A working plan for the ESPR has been adopted, outlining strategic guidelines for the next five years. The current regulations will apply across products in the EU’s single market, emphasizing sustainability measures that benefit individuals and businesses alike, while also working toward emissions reduction.
The adoption of the working plan marks a pivotal moment that will deliver significant benefits for all Europeans, create opportunities for businesses and employment, and protect the planet.
The ESPR intends to embed durability, repairability and recyclability into the design of products, aiming to reduce waste and improve energy efficiency.
