European Recycling Conference (ERC) 2026

European Recycling Conference 2026 — Madrid

Save the date: the European Recycling Conference (ERC) heads to IFEMA Madrid in 2026, bringing together hundreds of industry leaders, policymakers and innovators at a decisive moment for Europe’s circular transition.

With the spotlight on the upcoming Circular Economy Act, this year’s conference will focus on one central question: how do we deliver circularity in practice? Discussions will explore the policy, market and industrial conditions needed to turn Europe’s circular ambitions into measurable results across value chains.

Beyond the policy debate, networking will take centre stage. ERC 2026 is designed as a high-impact meeting point where recyclers, manufacturers, EU officials and market analysts can connect, exchange intelligence and build partnerships that move the sector forward. From curated networking moments to informal exchanges throughout the day, participants will benefit from unmatched opportunities to expand their European network.

Join us in Madrid for one of the year’s key gatherings for the recycling value chain — where policy meets business, and connections turn into action.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
