Session description

Clear waste classification is a cornerstone of effective circular economy policies—especially when dealing with complex composite material waste from wind turbine blades and boats. Yet, ambiguity around waste codes often hinders recycling, traceability, and regulatory alignment. This session will explore how demystifying waste codes for composites can unlock smarter recycling pathways, support compliance, and foster material traceability. By clarifying classification standards, we empower regulators, recyclers, and industry stakeholders to collaborate more effectively and enable sustainable material flows across sectors.
