  • Addressing microplastics release from apparel

    Textiles are among the most significant sources of environmental microplastic pollution in the EU. The EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation offers an opportunity to introduce mandatory ecodesign requirements on microplastics release to help address this growing environmental concern. We outline recommendations for the delegated act on ecodesign for apparel, drawing on published standardised methodologies (ISO 4484 series).
