Ecodesign: Right-to-Repair campaign calls for reduction in raw material requirements

Ahead of the start of the trilogue negotiations on the Ecodesign Regulation next Wednesday, the European Right-to-Repair campaign calls on the EU institutions to ensure effective ecodesign requirements and to exploit the potential for reducing the demand for (critical) raw materials. A position paper to this effect is available to Table.Media. In it, the alliance of European organizations advocating for repair writes: „We see the Ecodesign Regulation as a major step by the EU towards the transition to a circular economy.“ The paper has been signed by other civil society organizations such as Germanwatch.
