ERP (European Recycling Platform), a pan-European organization that deals throughout the country with the regulation-compliant management of waste electrical and electronic equipment, batteries and accumulators, has announced the establishment of the ERP Italia Textile Consortium in anticipation of the entry into force of the new European directive for the proper recycling of textile waste. The goal of the project is to achieve 50% recycling of Italy’s textile waste by 2035.

This non-profit entity aims to ensure the management of compliance obligations in textile waste management as defined under the Extended Producer Responsibility Principle (EPR) and other obligated entities operating in Italy. This is the first Italian textile waste recycling consortium with a truly European scope. Precisely because of its membership in a global group spread across 18 countries with 41 collective collection systems, the Consortium can play a crucial role in making the sector more sustainable, considering that the amount of textile waste such as garments, home furnishing fabrics and footwear is expected to increase by +63% by 2030.
