Did you know the way a product is designed determines most of its environmental impact? Europe does, and is doing something about it.
The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) is set to shake up industries from fashion to furniture to automotive, and it is coming sooner than you think.
At von Holzhausen, we’ve been preparing for this future from the start. Our REACH-certified, non-toxic, renewable, and resource-efficient materials give brands exactly what they need to stay ahead of ESPR and the regulatory tangle.
Products to be prioritized in the working plan for 2025-2030:
More than compliance, the ESPR is a complete reimagining of how things are made, used, and managed after their first life. For businesses it might mean:
- Phasing out substances that block circularity
- Increasing recycled content
- Making sustainability information transparent and easy to access
(To name a few. The EU takes overachieving seriously, and we can relate)
The ESPR isn’t just good for the planet. It’s a launchpad for innovation and competitiveness. Brands that act early will win with smarter design, better materials, and products that are regulatory-proof.
The takeaway? Design smarter, waste less, and build a better future. The time to reimagine materials is now.
