FNADE

FNADE welcomes the European Commissions decision to take up the crucial issue of circular economy through this ambitious initiative. Our members, industrial actors in waste management and resource recovery, see this proposal as a key step towards strengthening the EUs sovereignty, competitiveness and industrial resilience.

FNADE, the French association of environmental services companies, welcomes the commission's new initiative to improve product performance as well as the information on this performance and thus help consumers make a reliable choice.

FNADE's attached feedback to the call for evidence highlights that significant challenges remain in relation to traceability and certification requirements in the waste sector. FNADE calls on the European Commission to include much-needed simplification measures in its forthcoming Energy Omnibus proposal instead of waiting for a revision of the post-2030 framework.

1) We positively welcome the explicit mention that data must come from operational production and not from an industry average. Similarly, maintaining the prohibition of negative credits and the prohibition of credit exchange between sites or companies is positive. 2) Generally, the formulation proposed in the draft implementing decision goes against the principles of proportional traceability.

The forthcoming technical guidance under Article 5 of the Performance Regulation is an important occasion to clarify the interpretation of the DNSH principle for circular economy as well as some concepts left undefined in the Taxonomy Regulation. Please find attached FNADE's contribution to this work.

La FNADE fédération française des activités de gestion des déchets et des services à lenvironnement, soutient lobjectif de la Commission visant à établir des critères européens harmonisés de sortie du statut de déchet (SSD) pour les plastiques recyclés, afin de renforcer le marché intérieur des matières plastiques recyclées et la confiance dans les recyclats européens.

The attached paper sets out FNADE's position on the post-2030 revision of the Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR) and the broader EU climate framework towards 2040. It calls for the preservation of binding national targets for non-ETS sectors to ensure fair and accountable contributions by Member States.

FNADE, the French federation for waste management and environmental services, is the professional organisation representing the private resource and waste management industry. As a major player in the circular economy, the waste industry produces recycled materials, fertilisers and green energy, substituting natural resources and fossil fuels. It provides solutions to major environmental and climate challenges.

FNADE welcomes the European Commissions recent initiatives regarding the reclassification and the ban on nitrous oxide as of 1 February 2027, aimed at addressing the scourge of this substance as a public health, environmental and operational issue, while still allowing its continued use for legitimate purposes.
