ETIRA members held the association’s Annual General Meeting on 14th May during The Recycler Live Event in Tallinn.

President: Javier Martínez
Vice-President: Gerwald van der Gijp

Milan Banjac did not stand for re-election, and the general assembly thanked him for his valued contribution to ETIRA over the past years.
The AGM reaffirmed ETIRA’s strategic priorities: strengthening advocacy, particularly regarding the upcoming EU ecodesign regulation on the printing industry, ensuring fair market access, improving compliance, and supporting members across Europe in the transition to a more sustainable, circular economy.
ETIRA added that it remains committed to delivering a level playing field for remanufacturers across Europe through informed lobbying, practical support, and continued collaboration with its members.
