On Tuesday, 3 November AmCham EU submitted its response to the European Commission’s inception impact assessment on the Sustainable Products Initiative. With this initiative, the Commission promises to make products placed on the EU market more sustainable. While AmCham EU members fully support the circular economy transition and are committed to closing the carbon loop, we wish to underline the need to maintain the main principles of a legislative framework that is already delivering excellent results. The contribution calls on the European Commission to ensure the coherence of any new legislative initiative with existing regulations addressing products in different life phases. Read AmCham EU’s contribution here.
