The EU's Circular Economy Act aims to unify fragmented recycling systems for fibre-based packaging by harmonising collection, sorting, and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes across Member States, improving cross-border movement of secondary raw materials and recycling consistency.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must prepare for a more unified EU recycling market that demands consistent collection and sorting standards. Aligning your operations now to emerging harmonised rules on packaging recyclability and producer responsibilities will secure your access to secondary material markets.
