Two weeks ago the annual ECRA - European Carpet and Rug Association / GUT Member Meeting 2025 brought together the leading players of the European carpet industry 🌍♻️ From OBJECT CARPET, our CFO/COO Marc Kaminski attended as part of the ECRA board as well as Nico Janssen, Head of Niaga® – a perfect opportunity to connect with industry peers.   Discussions focused on upcoming EU waste & EPR regulations, Digital Product Passports (DPP), and the role of EPDs in harmonizing construction product data 📊. Highlights included insights from ECHT on chemical traceability, CISUFLO exploring mono- and DUO-material solutions, lessons from California’s EPR system, and innovative approaches to circular carpet design and closed-loop recycling 🔄   A well-attended event with high-quality presentations and excellent networking opportunities. Thank you to all organizers! 🙌   #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #CarpetIndustry #ECRA #GUT #DesignForRecycling #Innovation #OBJECTCARPET
