EuRIC is delighted to welcome FERVER – the Fédération Européenne des Recycleurs de Verre, as the newest partner of its Contruction and Demolition Branch (ECDB).
As the European federation of glass recycling companies, FERVER brings together industry leaders from 19 countries and its members are, amongst others, responsible for recycling around 70% of Europe’s packaging glass waste into high-quality cullet – a key raw material used to produce new glass products. FERVER members recycle both container glass and flat glass. FERVER therefore plays a vital role in closing the loop for glass and advancing circularity across Europe.
Julia Ettinger, EuRIC’s Secretary General, welcomed the partnership, stating :
“We are delighted to welcome FERVER as our newest partner in EuRIC’s Construction and Demolition Branch. FERVER’s deep expertise in glass recycling and its commitment to circularity make it a valuable addition to our branch, which represents the collective interests of Europe’s construction and demolition waste recycling industries.”
Olivier Deweerdt, Secretary General at FERVER, added :
“We are confident that the exchange of expertise between FERVER and EuRIC will yield mutual benefits and reinforce our collective impact in the ongoing discourse on construction and demolition waste recycling. We therefore look forward to this collaboration with great anticipation.”
As a partner of EuRIC’s Construction & Demolition Branch (ECDB), FERVER will actively contribute to key policy initiatives by sharing its expertise in glass recycling, fostering industry collaboration, and advocating for forward-looking recycling policies. This partnership will specifically address regulatory and policy developments impacting glass recycling within the construction and demolition sector.
