On 28 June 2024, the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) – was published in the Official Journal of the EU. Future ecodesign requirements stemming from the ESPR will impact global clients’ supply chains by requiring compliance with new sustainability standards. The standards once adopted, will be directly applicable in all the EU Member States, with an entry into force of the first set foreseen by 2027 or 2028.
At this stage of the ESPR, we can assist companies in understanding the new requirements and guide them through the adoption phase of the Working Plans and the subsequent secondary legislation, which will concretely define the regulation’s scope. This may also include, if requested, engaging with decision makers to suggest modifications to the proposed draft secondary legislation.
