Collectief Circulair Textiel (CCT) & New Wave Textiles
The Future of B2B Under the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for Textiles
📍 10 September | 13:40 – 14:05
How will the new EPR legislation shape the future of the textile industry — and what does it mean for B2B players? In this live podcast-style session, Collectief Circulair Textiel (CCT) and New Wave Textiles will engage in a frank discussion on the opportunities and challenges ahead.
From what works well to what must change, the conversation will explore how businesses can prepare for the future, and why collaboration across the value chain is essential to accelerate the transition. With insights from both a producer organization driving systemic change and a B2B player actively navigating the shift, this session offers a unique perspective on the path forward.
Key takeaway
No company can make the transition alone — collaboration in consortia, value chains, and cross-sector ecosystems determines both the speed and scalability of innovation.
