Established in April 2023, Erion Textiles is the sixth non-profit Collective Scheme within the Erion System and supports producers in the management of end-of-life textile products, promoting collection, traceability, and the development of a more circular and responsible value chain. Erion Textiles’ stated aim is to help establish a sustainable, circular chain, bearing in mind that the Collective Scheme and its Members will be responsible for its implementation.
Erion Textiles had strategically established itself along two main lines: representing the interests of its Producers in dialogue with stakeholders and building a solid membership base in anticipation of the EPR system coming into force.
Some of the sector’s leading companies joined the Collective Scheme during the year. By the end of 2025, Erion Textiles had 14 Members and ranked among the leading Producer Responsibility Organizations (PRO) in Italy and Europe in terms of volumes placed on the market.
In terms of stakeholder engagement, Erion Textiles organized several informative webinars in 2025, as well as participating in events and conferences on EPR and Eco-design for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) legislation, recycling, and green communication. These events featured leading experts in these fields and provided Producers with insights to help them address these issues and prepare for future regulatory obligations. It is also worth noting the collaboration with Ipsos Doxa Italia, which resulted in the creation of the ‘Textile Observatory’. This involved two research waves throughout the year, providing a snapshot of consumer habits, particularly with regard to the disposal of clothing and other textile items in Italy.
In 2025, the Collective Scheme coordinated two research projects: one focusing on the traceability of textile waste, and the other on the Digital Product Passport (DPP). The aim was to develop expertise in this area and support Producers in implementing these initiatives.
