Fashion Industry Faces Compliance Challenges with New EU Regulations
The fashion industry is preparing for significant compliance changes as the European Union moves towards enforcing digital product passports (DPPs) and extended producer responsibility (EPR). These regulations will require brands selling in the EU to finance end-of-life waste management and disclose detailed product data. The implementation of DPPs is set for late 2027, while EPR will become mandatory by April 2028. However, the necessary infrastructure for compliance, such as data systems and recycling facilities, is not yet fully developed, posing challenges for the industry.
