Over 80% of textiles are discarded globally. A circular economy, driven by Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), offers a vital solution. Mandatory, fee-based EPR policies hold producers accountable for collecting, sorting, and recirculating their products, fostering transparency and attracting investment for large-scale reuse and recycling infrastructure.

The latest Circular Economy Show episode explores global challenges and opportunities in textile EPR with experts like Matteo Magnani, co-author of "Pushing the boundaries of EPR policy for textiles."
