Cristian Gavril, CEO of Ecotron, attends the Conference “Legislative Urgencies in the Waste Sector”

Cristian Gavril, CEO of Ecotron, recently participated in the conference “Legislative Urgencies in the Waste Sector,” an event focused on the major challenges and regulatory changes affecting the management of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and batteries in 2026.

The central theme addressed the cumulative impact of new European regulations — particularly those related to Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) — and how these changes intersect with Romania’s structural realities.

Key topics discussed included:

  • Achieving the 65% WEEE collection target;
  • The introduction of the Digital Product Passport (DPP);
  • Implementation of the EN 50625 treatment standards;
  • Eco-modulation mechanisms;
  • Alignment of national legislation with the new EU Batteries Regulation.

Ecotron reaffirms its commitment to a flexible, transparent, and expertise-driven operational model capable of meeting increasingly stringent requirements regarding traceability, compliance and performance in the WEEE sector.

We remain actively engaged in institutional dialogue and stand alongside our partners in the transition toward a functional and sustainable circular economy.
