Environment committees of inDUfed!
A big thank you to Avery Dennison, a global leader in materials science and innovative digital technologies (graphic labels, smart labels, branding solutions) and holder of nearly 4,400 patents, for hosting us and giving us a tour of its site. It is always inspiring to see first-hand how our members are committed to innovation, sustainability and operational excellence.
During the session, we discussed several key issues shaping the current regulatory landscape and influencing investment decisions within Belgium’s paper, board and glass industries. On the agenda:
- European energy and climate policy
- EUETS 2026–2030 and its impact on competitiveness
- Energy Norm
- Electricity grids and the challenges they pose for industry
- IED & environmental permits
- Tax on industrial wastewater
- PPWR
- PFAS
These discussions are essential to ensure that our industries continue to progress towards climate neutrality whilst maintaining a strong industrial base in Belgium.
