Supporting Sustainable Materials, Repairability and Reconditioning The CEC believes that the CEA should adopt a broad approach that promotes not only secondary raw materials but also circular, sustainable and durable materials such as leather. Leather is inherently circular, produced from raw hides and skins that are by-products of the food industry.

What they argued
The European Footwear Confederation (CEC) welcomes the adoption of the proposal for an EU Directive on Substantiating Green Claims and the consequent implementation of a science-based approach, which represents a step forward towards harmonisation in the EU single market while allowing certain flexibility to economic operators. Please find enclosed our comments to the proposal.
The European Footwear Confederation (CEC) welcomes the objectives of the EU Digital Product Passport and the establishment of a common Registry as important steps towards greater transparency, traceability, and circularity in the internal market.
