What is Circular economy?

An economic model aimed at keeping the value of products and materials for as long as possible by reducing waste and by reusing, repairing and recycling.

Rules such as extended producer responsibility, recycled content requirements and digital product passports directly affect exporters. Packaging, textiles and electronics are the most affected sectors.
