Launched in 2024, the ECCA aims to accelerate the transition toward a fully circular economy for composite materials in Europe. The alliance brings together stakeholders across the composite value chain to coordinate action and set industry-wide targets for circularity, innovation and impact.
A shared vision for circular composites
The ECCA is built around five key focus areas:
- Monitoring and measuring progress at an industry level
- Design for circularity and recycling
- Collection and sorting of composite waste
- Uptake of recycled content in new products
- Investment in recycling technologies and research
These pillars lay the foundations for a composites industry that is more sustainable, more efficient and resolutely forward-looking.
By joining the ECCA, CompPair reinforces its commitment to developing composite solutions that go beyond reducing impact, aiming at actively preserving materials, extending product lifetimes and eliminating unnecessary waste.
With their HealTech™ technology, which enables on-site, ultra-fast repair of composite materials, paves the way for a design based on sustainability and reuse. With over 60 repair cycles possible per part, HealTech™ directly contributes to the principles ECCA stands for: longevity, efficiency and resource retention.
“We are particularly excited to contribute our expertise in repairability—an often underrepresented pillar of circularity—and collaborate with fellow members to raise industry standards and unlock new material pathways,” the company highlights in a press release.
ECCA provides a much-needed forum for the composite industry to speak with one voice—to align on goals, invest in innovation and take meaningful, coordinated steps toward a more regenerative future.
