The EUCTL General Assembly, held on May 7th, 2026, in Barcelona and hosted by AEPSAT, brought together key representatives and guest speakers from the textile (EURATEX), leather (COTANCE), and chemical industries (CEFIC) alongside the Joint Research Centre (European Commission) in its public section.
A joint statement by EUCTL, EURATEX, ETAD, AFIRM, FESI, EBCA, IAF, ETSA and EuroCommerce expresses the views of the Textiles Value Chain on the Delegated Act on Textiles, to be issued under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).
On May 7th, 2025, EUCTL held its fifth General Assembly in Brussels, the heart of EU politics. The well-attended hybrid event was marked by speeches from guest speakers from the EU Commission and EURATEX, as well as extensive discussion.
EUCTL is proud and happy to welcome the Spanish association AEPSAT - Asociación Española de Productores, Formuladores y Comercializadores de Especialidades Químicas - as a new EUCTL member as of 2025!
The 4th General Assembly of EUCTL took place on May 8th, held as a web conference. More than 30 participants were joining, including guests from the value chain such as ETAD (The Ecological and Toxicological Association of Dyes and Organic Pigments Manufacturers) and Cotance (Confederation of National Associations of Tanners and Dressers of the European Community).
The European Chemicals Agency have approved the application of EUCTL as ECHA's Accredited Stakeholder.
This appointment will allow EUCTL to be more directly involved in the activities of the Agency and it will also allow us to participate to the meetings of RAC (Committee for Risk Assessment), SEAC (Committee for Socio-economic Analysis) and MSC (Member States Committee).
