🎽 Policy alone won’t save our textiles. Germany’s EPR scheme needs a united industry strategy - before 2028. We can’t afford to wait for regulation to fix sorting and recycling bottlenecks. Industry-led pilots and investment must start today to meet tomorrow’s policy demands. In our new episode, Julia Haas, Marie Nawrocki, Steffen Gerlach, Sophie Herrmann, and Carl Warkentin explore what it will take to turn EPR from legislation into action. Here’s what you’ll hear in this panel discussion: ⚠️ Why infrastructure gaps matter, and what must be built ahead of 2028 💲 What makes EPR fee allocation complex, and how it impacts investment 🛠️ What industry-led pilots can do to shape how the final scheme performs in practice This episode was recorded at the CIRCULAR REPUBLIC FESTIVAL 2025 and is part of our series in partnership with CIRCULAR REPUBLIC. 🎧 Full episode available on the Circularity.fm website, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.
