Regulatory updates with the European Commission: What we can expect from the ESPR textiles delegated act

Q&A
Back to agenda

At Innovation Forum’s last Q&A with the European Commission, the room split almost evenly on whether EU regulation made their work significantly easier or significantly harder. Compliance has become both an anchor and pair of handcuffs for sustainability teams.

With clear guidance and comparable disclosure, regulation can reset the business case. That clarity is still pending, particularly around ESPR and how emerging regulation aligns with other regions’ regulation. This live session will be informed by the audience from the beginning with a pre-event survey on the most important topics as well as Q&A on the day to ensure confidence when it comes to eco-modulation, enforcement, supplier requirements and global alignment.
