Cement co-processing: a sustainable solution for end-of-life composite materials
Today seven industry associations working on increasing the circularity of composite materials have published a statement highlighting the important role cement co-processing can play in treating end-of-life composite materials.
Together, our associations call on policymakers to recognise these benefits and facilitate the upscaling of co-processing with a more supportive EU regulatory framework. The European Commission and the national authorities should recognise cement co-processing as a recycling process to allow the EU to foster industry growth and ensure a circular future for both the cement and composite material sectors. Composite materials, a combination of reinforced fibres (usually glass or carbon fibres) and a polymer matrix, are known for their... ... More: Official Press Release WindEurope
