Roundtables
Well-functioning secondary raw material markets (e.g. recycled steel, aluminium, plastics or textiles) are essential to the success of the circular economy and to strengthening Europe’s competitiveness. As these markets are expected to feature prominently in the forthcoming EU Circular Economy Act, this roundtable will explore key barriers as well as concrete opportunities to strengthen and improve their performance across Europe.
