We are pleased to announce the publication of our latest Press Release summarising the key outcomes of the Plenary Session of the Industrial Symbiosis Standardisation Roadmap Working Groups, held on 12 November 2025 in Brussels.
The Press Release highlights the contribution of more than 80 experts from industry, research organisations, standardisation bodies and EU initiatives who came together to advance the development of a comprehensive Standardisation Roadmap for Industrial Symbiosis. It also outlines the priority areas defined by the ten RISERS Working Groups and the next steps toward finalising the Roadmap by the end of 2026.
The newly published Press Release provides:
- an overview of the strategic importance of industrial symbiosis for Europe’s circular economy,
- insights into the Working Groups’ progress on regulatory, technical and sector-specific standardisation needs,
- reflections from key speakers representing CEN-CENELEC, A.SPIRE, ECOS, ICLEI and other European organisations,
- a look ahead at how the Roadmap will support harmonised standards and facilitate scalable resource sharing across industries.
This publication marks an important milestone in the RISERS project, reinforcing our commitment to co-creating practical, evidence-based pathways for standardisation and accelerating circularity across Europe.
