The ECCA has been set up by the European Composites Industry Association (EuCIA) which represents European national composites associations and industry-specific sector groups at EU level.
It was launched in 2025 to establish a circular economy for composites in Europe. It provides a platform for knowledge sharing and cooperation, driving collective action to establish truly circular, sustainable value chains for composite materials. It will set and achieve targets on the use of recovered and recycled composites, develop standards for circular product design and provide a forum for the industry.
Stakeholders across the composites value chain can join the ECCA by signing the declaration. They can then join one of the five working groups, from aerospace to construction to policy/regulation.
This workshop will bring together six EU-funded projects representing an ecosystem of 80 organisations driving innovation towards catalyst circularity and greener production in the EU.
