ESPR (Regulation (EU) 2024/1781) entered into force on 18 July 2024, and its 2025-2030 working plan, adopted by the Commission on 16 April 2025, identifies the first product families. Delegated acts are expected in 2026 for iron and steel, 2027 for textiles, tyres and aluminium, 2028 for furniture and 2029 for mattresses. Each act only applies after a transition of at least 18 months. A mid-term review in 2028 should add ICT, consumer electronics, chemicals and lubricants, for application between 2031 and 2035.
