🚧 Could Extended Producer Responsibility serve as a catalyst for sustainable construction? Find out in this GAP for EPR webinar on October 15, 1PM! 🌍 The EU’s construction industry consumes nearly 50% of all extracted materials and generates almost 40% of the EU’s waste. Although nearly 95% of building materials are recyclable, less than 5% of their actual resource value is currently being preserved. In the webinar "Exploring Extended Producer Responsibility for the Construction Sector", the Global Action Partnership for EPR will strive to discuss the aforementioned question by delving into the critical aspects of EPR and its implication for the construction industry.
