EURATEX joins ecodesign forum to shape sustainable regulations for textiles

The European Apparel and Textile Confederation (EURATEX) has been selected as a member of the Ecodesign Forum, a vital platform established under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR). This appointment marks a significant step in EURATEX’s ongoing commitment to promoting sustainability and innovation within the European textile and clothing industry.

The Ecodesign Forum brings together key stakeholders, including the European Commission, Member States, and various industry representatives, to discuss and shape the future of ecodesign regulations. The forum’s primary focus is on critical aspects of the ESPR, including the Delegated Act on textile products, the regulatory work programme, and upcoming measures related to unsold goods.

EURATEX’s participation in this influential forum ensures that the voice of the European textile and clothing industry is firmly represented in discussions surrounding ecodesign and sustainability. The association will advocate for practical, realistic ecodesign requirements that take into account the diverse needs of the sector, from small businesses to large multinational companies.

Key Priorities for EURATEX
EURATEX emphasizes the importance of creating regulations that support both innovation and competitiveness, while also pushing forward sustainability goals. The association will work to ensure that the new rules are not only ambitious but also achievable for businesses at all scales. This includes ensuring that the regulations allow for flexibility, promote technological innovation, and foster an environment where sustainable practices can flourish without unduly burdening the industry.

By joining the Ecodesign Forum, EURATEX aims to help shape a regulatory framework that supports the transition to a more sustainable and circular textile sector, while also safeguarding the competitiveness of European manufacturers on the global stage.

As the textile industry faces increasing pressure to reduce environmental impact, EURATEX’s involvement in the Ecodesign Forum is expected to play a pivotal role in steering the industry toward a more sustainable and economically viable future.
