Mattresses

Delegated act expected 2029

Mattresses close out the six product groups explicitly named in the first ESPR Working Plan. They're a notoriously hard-to-recycle waste stream - mixed foam, springs and textile covers make disassembly and material recovery difficult, which is exactly the kind of problem a passport's disassembly and material data is meant to address.

What a mattresses passport is expected to cover

  • Material composition: foam type, spring construction, textile cover
  • Durability data
  • Substances of concern, including flame retardants
  • Recyclability and disassembly instructions for material recovery
  • Availability of take-back schemes
