This #EURegionsWeek 2025 side event will showcase how Europe’s circular value chains can become more inclusive, resilient and sustainable, with a focus on microelectronics, resource recovery and circular economy infrastructure.
It will present the CLOSER and EVEN-CLOSER projects which tackle the recovery of secondary raw materials from e-waste for reuse in the manufacture of chips and microlectronics.
CityLoops (Closing the loop for urban material flows) was a Horizon 2020 project which focused on circular economy solutions for bio-waste and construction and demolition waste (CDW). Seven European cities implemented ten demonstration actions and tested over 30 new tools and processes, which are available together with replication packages and feedback from the cities which tested them.
The COLLECTORS project (waste COLLECTiOn systems assessed and good pRacticeS identified) identified good practices in waste collection and sorting, focusing on paper and packaging, waste electrical and electronic equipment, and construction and demolition.
The ECCA has been set up by the European Composites Industry Association to provide a platform for knowledge sharing and cooperation, driving collective action to establish truly circular, sustainable value chains for composite materials.
