The European Commission has published details on the application of the Regulation on Ecodesign requirements for sustainable products (ESPR).<\/strong><\/p>\n

The new regulation on\u00a0Ecodesign for Sustainable Products (ESPR)<\/a>\u00a0which enters into force on 18 July 2024, changes the way products are designed and marketed in the European Union. The European Commission has published a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document explaining what the regulation entails and how it affects European businesses and consumers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is ESPR?<\/h2>\n

ESPR is, in a nutshell, a set of rules that aims to make products on the EU market more sustainable, easier to repair and recycle, and with a reduced environmental impact. The aim is to move away from the current \"buy-waste-throw-away\" consumption model and promote the circular economy. The regulation covers a wide range of products, from household appliances and electronics to furniture, clothing and metal products. Each product category will have its own specific requirements, tailored according to its environmental impact. For example, the requirements for a smartphone will be different from those for a car tyre.<\/p>\n

One of ESPR's biggest innovations is the \"Digital Product Passport\" - a digital passport that will contain information about product sustainability. This passport will allow consumers to find out how an item was produced, what materials were used and how easily it can be repaired or recycled.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Benefits of ESPR<\/h2>\n

ESPR brings direct benefits for consumers: products that last longer, are easier to repair and more energy efficient. In addition, consumers will have access to clear information about the sustainability of products, which will help them make more conscious choices.<\/p>\n

Companies have to adapt to the new rules, but the European Commission is pledging its support with training sessions and guides. Small and medium-sized businesses will also benefit from financial assistance. It will be a gradual compliance process, with many requirements not becoming mandatory until 2027. This timeframe gives companies the opportunity to adapt to the changes ahead, especially in terms of monitoring chemicals and complying with design standards to improve sustainability.<\/p>\n

In the coming period, the European Commission will adopt a multi-annual working plan prioritising products and measures. There will also be measures against the practice of destroying unsold products, particularly in the textiles and footwear sector.<\/p>\n
