Licence your textiles in just a few clicks with Click & Comply!
Are you a seller or producer? Or are you running an Online Platform with Market Sellers? Do you need help with EPR Textile Decree (UPV Textiel Wetgeving) compliance in the Netherlands?
Look no further! At European Recycling Platform Netherlands, we offer the perfect solutions.
Since July 1, 2023, the Netherlands has implemented Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for textiles, making companies responsible for the end-of-life management of textile products.
Companies are responsible, also financially, for the collection, preparation for reuse, and recycling of textile products after consumers have discarded them.
European Recycling Platform Netherlands, a Landbell Group company, provides a simple and easy solution for sellers/producers and online platforms with market sellers to meet these compliance responsibilities. The process is often overly complicated and time-consuming.
As a Producer Responsibility Organisation (PRO), we give our customers a quick and easy way to buy compliance products online and, for this purpose, European Recycling Platform Netherlands has launched a new online store, Click & Comply.
With our Click & Comply shop, we offer simple and reliable services that meet legal requirements for the EPR Textile Decree.
Our package includes:
- We register you with the authorities in the Netherlands.
- We report to the authorities.
- We set up the corresponding textile collection and treatment approaches for the following years to achieve circularity within the textile value chain and reach the targets in accordance with the legislation.

Definitions
Textiles
The new regulation for EPR applies to all companies that professionally offer clothing on the Dutch market. This means all manufacturers and importers of consumer clothing, workwear and corporate clothing, as well as table, bed and household linen.
Furthermore, it does not matter whether the textiles are offered to a company (B2B) or to end consumers (B2C, D2C). This also applies to textiles which are made from partially recycled material.
Excluded from the regulation are:
- Dutch second-hand shops, because these clothes already exist on the market;
- Companies that supply basic materials for production.
In a nutshell – the Textile EPR law applies to all companies that sell clothing and household textiles on the Dutch market, whether to private or commercial end consumers.
