7th European Recycling Conference (ERC) 2025

Mark your calendars, because the 2025 European Recycling Conference (ERC) is heading to Hamburg, Germany, on the 1st of October!
This year’s theme: Building a competitive market for recycled materials
Co-organised with our German members, BDSV, bvse, and VDM.
Join us to explore the critical role of recycled and other secondary raw materials in delivering on the EU’s Competitiveness Compass and Clean Industrial Deal objectives.

Key topics include:
-
Integrating circularity into EU trade, energy, and competitiveness policies

The potential of End-of-Waste criteria and the role of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes
-
Navigating the post-Waste Shipment Regulation landscape
-
Responding to supply chain volatility in a new era of global tariffs

Preserving international trade flows of recycled materials
-
The case for small-scale, strategic partnerships over trade barriers
Join top-level speakers from both the industry and policy-making spheres, and connect with fellow industry leaders, market analysts and journalists.
