ESPR (Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation) is Regulation (EU) 2024/1781, setting ecodesign conditions for almost all physical products placed on the Union market. Adopted on 13 June 2024 and in force since 18 July 2024, it replaces Directive 2009/125/EC, limited to energy-related products. Food, medicines and living organisms are excluded. The regulation sets the common framework (Digital Product Passport, EU declaration of conformity, prohibition on destroying certain unsold goods); quantified requirements arrive through delegated acts, product group by product group.
