Critical raw materials

As critical raw materials become an increasingly high topic on the EU institutions’ agenda, we support the promotion of reuse activities for critical raw material-rich waste streams. We are convinced that reducing material demand by extending the useful life of products through reuse and repair activities is the right way to reduce Europe's dependence on critical raw materials.
