Bekaert welcomes the objectives of the proposed Circular Economy Act (CEA) to strengthen EU competitiveness, economic security, and sustainability. We support a harmonized, science-based, and market-oriented approach that ensures consistent product standards, avoids overlap with existing legislation, and promotes fair competition between EU and non-EU producers.

What they argued
Summary Call for Simplification Bekaert strongly supports the objectives of the EU Taxonomy but highlights the urgent need for simplification and clarification of its technical screening criteria. Current rules are mainly designed for end-product manufacturers and create disproportionate complexity for component* and intermediate-goods* producers that enable decarbonization across multiple sectors.
