Europe’s textile PROs join forces to harmonize EPR implementation

  

European PROs and business associations join forces to promote best practices and collaboration for effective implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for textiles and footwear across Europe.

The Textile PRO Forum, a new voluntary initiative, aims to address the challenge of navigating the complexities of up to 27 different EPR models for textiles in the EU. With EPR schemes becoming a cornerstone of the European strategy for textile sustainability and circularity, the Forum seeks to foster collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and harmonization among Textile EPR Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs).

Initiated by Refashion, the first PRO for textiles, and Euratex, the European Textile and Apparel Confederation, the Forum's key activities include reducing administrative burdens, harmonizing approaches to eco-modulation fees, supporting recycling efforts, and establishing a framework for PRO creation and expansion.

The Forum brings together experienced PROs and national business associations from across Europe, including organizations from Spain, France, Belgium, Denmark, and more. This collaborative effort is expected to improve efficiency and navigate the complexities of diverse EPR models for businesses operating in the European textile industry.
