UE interzice distrugerea hainelor și încălțămintei nevândute: Outleturile vor avea mai multă marfă. Măsura a intrat în vigoare

The EU has banned the destruction of unsold clothing and footwear, effective from July 19, 2026, for large companies. This regulation aims to reduce waste and promote sustainable practices in the fashion industry. Medium-sized businesses will follow suit by July 19, 2030, while small enterprises are exempt. The legislation encourages alternatives like resale, donation, and recycling instead of disposal. Companies must report on unsold products and their disposal methods starting February 2027. The ban is part of a broader effort to combat overproduction and environmental impact in the fashion sector.
