The "Roadmap on the implementation of the circular economy for end-of-life of boats", launched by EBI was developed by public and private stakeholders, including national authorities, industry, consumers/boaters, academia, and related industries sets the stage to comprehensively solve the issue of end-of-life boats, a key challenge for the industry.

It follows the successful dismantling and recycling schemes already set up in many European countries.

The industry, represented by EBI, commits to enhancing the circularity of the sector which will affect an estimate of more than 30,000 boats per year in the EU, resulting in over 23,1000 tons of end-of-life composite waste per year.

It further commits to phasing out landfilling and energy recovery by 2030. It will expand the use of more sustainable recycling solutions in coordination with other composite use industries.
