On 31 March, the EU Ecolabel, in conjunction with the ECESP, hosted the EU Circular Talk "The EU Ecolabel as a tool boosting circular economy & competitiveness”. This webinar explored how the EU Ecolabel acts as a ready-to-use tool helping businesses deliver circularity, meet rising legislative expectations, and gain a competitive edge across EU markets.

The 90-minute webinar began with presentations of the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform (ECESP), how the EU Ecolabel can boost circular competitiveness, the business case of Essity and the role of competent bodies. This was followed by an interactive roundtable and Q&A session with all panelists.
