Ecodesign Regulations (ESPR) – Where less could be more

29 March 2023

The ESPR regulations are in front of the European Parliament and they include unique definitions of refurbishment and remanufacturing.

These definitions have been sourced from the JRC (Joint Research Centre) in Seville.  In our one-page position paper, we argue that no value is added by creating yet more definitions when there are adequate definitions in national and international standards, the latest one of which is DIN SPEC91472 published in April 2023.

The European Remanufacturing Network (ERN) project received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement 645984.

The project was so successful that in January 2017 it was decided to create a European Remanufacturing Council funded by business membership subscriptions.

The ERN project (and the creation of a European Remanufacturing Council) was inspired by the earlier work of the Remanufacturing Industries Council in the USA.
