Recital 29

DIRECTIVE (EU) 2025/1892 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 10 September 2025 amending Directive 2008/98/EC on waste (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(29) According to the Political Guidelines for the next European Commission 2024 – 2029, the Commission will work on a new Circular Economy Act with the purpose of helping to create market demand for secondary materials and a single market for waste, notably in relation to critical raw material. In that context, Union legislation on waste is expected to be updated and the Commission will assess the need to amend Articles 8, 8a and 10 of Directive 2008/98/EC with a view to introducing extended producer responsibility for additional waste streams, such as mattresses and carpets, and to further harmonising recovery operations and extended producer responsibility requirements, including for producer registers.
