Reconomy, the international circular economy leader, has published its new Textile EPR Strategy 2030, outlining how businesses can prepare for sweeping changes in Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation and how Reconomy plans to support this transformation across Europe and beyond.

With the textile sector facing increasing regulatory pressure—particularly in Europe—EPR schemes are placing greater accountability on producers for managing the end-of-life of their products. This includes collection, reuse, recycling, and disposal, aligning with a broader push for circularity and sustainable production.

Reconomy’s strategy presents a five-year roadmap to help businesses navigate these changes, including insight into eco-modulation, Digital Product Passports, and supply chain data transparency. Rather than viewing EPR as a compliance burden, Reconomy positions it as an opportunity to enhance competitiveness and resilience through smarter, circular operations.

The company brings deep global experience to the challenge, operating more Producer Responsibility Organizations (PROs) than any other provider and supporting stakeholders with regulatory monitoring, data management, take-back, repair, and circularity logistics.

Lavi Aharon, Director of the Textile Programme and Business Development Director at Reconomy, emphasized the company’s unique position to support the industry: “Our new global strategy not only sets out what businesses can expect over the next five years but also details Reconomy’s own strategy and initiatives to support this transition.”

Aharon added that Reconomy looks forward to helping the textile sector enhance operational efficiency and contribute to a more circular economy that protects valuable resources.

The strategy follows the recent launch of Reconomy’s Textile EPR Impact Assessment service, designed to help companies prepare for the rapidly evolving textile regulation landscape.
