Landbell Group’s recommendations on how to best increase circularity

Landbell Group publishes White Paper on recommendations for a better policy framework.

Based on our extensive experience operating at the interface between producers, consumers, recyclers and municipalities, in the EU and beyond, we are convinced that the transition towards a circular economy must be driven by a few key principles. These principles are presented below.

Set smart targets for recycling and for phasing out landfill and incineration
Strengthen extended producer responsibility in a level playing field
Set up clear, transparent and practical roles and responsibilities for all actors involved
Empower consumers
Harmonise rules and increase competition in the waste and resource markets
Ensure effective enforcement
Promote research and development

Within this context, we want to share some recommendations for a policy framework that will boost the EU’s transition towards a circular economy and strengthen its global leadership in this domain.
