Producer responsibility for textiles is on the way
Producer responsibility for textiles has already been implemented in France and the Netherlands. Several countries are in the process of preparations and implementation, and in a few years it will be an EU legal requirement to have producer responsibility for clothing and textiles.
ERP is already established with a collective scheme for textiles in the Netherlands and will of course also be a collective scheme for clothing and textiles in Denmark when producer responsibility comes.
Legislation for producer responsibility on clothing and textiles will soon be in force worldwide. To meet all the requirements, you need innovative solutions and a partner with international presence, experience and know-how. A partner like the European Recycling Platform that covers all producer responsibility streams.
The Purpose with the extended producer responsibility is to
Reduce the need for virgin resources
Increase real reuse and recycling of textiles
Force companies to re-design to more circular designs
If you manufacture, import, sell textile products in Denmark, you can prepare yourself to have a legal obligation to comply with the EPR rules:
- Administrative and legal responsibility (documentation requirements, reporting, registering and labelling).
- Economic responsibility (companies to finance costs for logistics, sorting, recycling, registration).
- Practical/physical (sorting, collecting, recycling).
