ERC - The European Remanufacturing Council: Navigating European Legislation

Описание: In this episode of In the Spotlight with Quocirca, Louella Fernandes, CEO of Quocirca, is joined by David Fitzsimons, Director of the European Remanufacturing Council, to explore the accelerating shift toward a circular economy. They discuss how sustainability is becoming embedded in European legislation—from the Digital Product Passport to EcoDesign requirements—and how these frameworks are transforming the way products are designed, manufactured, and reused. Tune in to understand what these changes mean for the print industry, how organizations can adapt, and the opportunities that circularity presents for innovation and long-term business resilience.
