Making the most of the proposed Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation
02/06/2022
“In Europe, still too many resources are wasted, not recycled or kept in the cycle. And this is of course leading to other problems, such as material and energy dependency”, said in his keynote Michele Galatola, Policy Officer at European Commission DG GROW. To tackle this issue, on 30 March 2022 the European Commission proposed a new Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation. Orgalim’s latest Policy Exchange, joined by nearly 300 participants, took a timely look at the implications of the proposed Regulation - which will impact “not only the industry, but also society in general” as emphasised by the moderator Stephanie Mittelham, Manager Energy and Environment at Orgalim, Europe’s Technology Industries.
