The RECREATE project aims to come up with innovative technologies which will turn end-of-life composite waste into useful feedstock.
This conference will explore trends in the EU composites market and highlight applications across sectors such as automotive, wind energy, aerospace, transport, construction, naval industries and sports.
Around a thousand participants and up to 90 speakers will meet in Berlin and exchange ideas for the circular transformation.
The congress will feature panel discussions with high-profile speakers from politics and science, best practices from business, inspiring keynotes on the transformation of our society and many opportunities for networking.
The Textiles Recycling Expo will focus on solving the pressing issue of textile waste, including the recycling of fabrics, clothing, footwear, fibres and non-wovens. It will feature the latest sorting, shredding and recycling technologies, pioneering textile recyclers, and fibre and fabric manufacturers using reclaimed materials.
The REFRESH project is working on making wind energy more circular by developing more efficient ways to recycle and reuse wind turbine blades, which are made of hard to recycle composites.

Europe’s green and digital transitions are increasing demand for CRMs, just as geopolitical risks and trade tensions are reshaping global supply chains. The EU has been taking steps to secure and diversify supplies by building strategic partnerships with resource-rich countries, which includes recovering CRMs from mine waste and tailings.
The Western Balkans region is a natural partner: they are integrated into EU markets and transport networks and have a legacy of old industrial sites and mine tailings.
This study recommends mapping mining waste, linking local actors more closely to EU instruments and initiatives, and using the EU accession process to advance regulatory and administrative alignment on mining, waste management and water protection with the EU acquis.
The conference will explore how advanced AI tools and applications are accelerating the transition towards a circular and sustainable chemical and materials industry.
They are calling for posters: the deadline is 28 January!

The FertiCovery project focuses on nutrient recovery and the production of fertilisers from biowaste, manure and wastewater.
This workshop will bring together project partners and stakeholders to review, discuss and validate the final list of indicators which will serve as the basis for benchmarking nutrient recycling and biobased fertiliser production technologies.
A new EU-funded project has been launched to develop a deposit-return system for used textiles across Europe. Known as TexMat, the initiative will reward consumers for returning reusable and recyclable items, while notifying producers when discarded textiles require waste management.
The ESNI-NERM (The European Sustainable Nutrient Initiative (ESNI) Conference and the Nutrients in Europe Research Meeting (NERM) conference will be an opportunity to present and discuss scientific evidence and technological innovations that can support the European Commission’s goals on nutrient management.
