The Circular Aluminium Action Plan is the aluminium sector’s strategy for achieving aluminium’s full potential for a circular economy by 2030. The action plan aims to ensure that all end-of-life aluminium products are collected and recycled efficiently in Europe to maximise the aluminium recycling rates and to keep the material in active use. It builds on the aluminium industry’s Vision 2050 and provides policy recommendations for the sector.
The aluminium industry has the potential to be a key driver in achieving Europe’s ambitions for a climate-neutral and circular economy. Aluminium is by nature circular and fit for multiple recycling: it can be recycled over and over again without losing its original properties (lightness, conductivity, formability, durability, impermeability).
For years, it's been said that cement is one of the world's "hardest-to-abate" industries. A new generation of circular and low-carbon solutions are proving this is no longer true.
Join leading innovators and industry pioneers who are already bringing near-zero-carbon cement and concrete to market and industry stakeholders who support such pioneers with long-term support.
This two-day international event is organised by the WEEE Forum in cooperation with WEEE Ireland.
It will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, producer responsibility organisations (PROs), recyclers, manufacturers and circular economy experts to discuss the future of Extended Producer Responsibility and electronic waste management within Europe's evolving circular economy framework.
A practical framework for structuring operational, traceability and material-flow evidence into buyer-readable documentation for circular value chains, procurement review and cross-border supplier due diligence.
The European Commission has just adopted new rules on recycling of single-use plastic beverage bottles made primarily of polyethylene terephthalate (PET bottles).
The rules will ensure transparency in calculating recycled content in these bottles and enable Member States to meet recycled content targets.
Rice Tab is a technical board developed from rice husks, an agricultural byproduct widely available in Europe.
Designed for applications in architecture, interior design and furniture, it transforms what was once considered waste into a high-performance material with a new functional life in the built environment.
Improving the nutritional and environmental profile of food products is a dynamic and complex task.
This guide brings together how others approach these reformulation decisions in practice. It provides practical guidance, real-world examples and up-to-date solutions to help you navigate the reformulation process.
It covers upcycling ingredients and regenerative agriculture.
This webinar will discuss what the Circular Economy Act should deliver from a practical waste-management and implementation perspective.
It will look at how local waste systems, circular economy policy and producer responsibility schemes can better support Europe’s transition towards a circular economy.
On 10 June, the EU's MEP Group on Climate Change, Biodiversity & Sustainable Development held a meeting on Navigating the Circular Economy Act: Implications and opportunities for a sustainable EU.
Speakers discussed what the CEA aims to achieve and what gaps need to be addressed.
