Recital 19
Recital 19
(19) The household textile and apparel clothing comprise the largest share of Union textile consumption and the biggest contributor to unsustainable patterns of over production and overconsumption. Household tTextiles and apparel are also the focus of all existing separate collection systems in Member States along with other post-consumer apparel and accessories and footwear that are not primarily composed of textiles. Therefore, the scope of the established extended producer responsibility scheme should cover household textile products and other articles of apparel, clothing accessories and footwear. In order to ensure the legal certainty for the producers on the products subject to the extended producer responsibility, the products in scope should be identified by reference to the Combined Nomenclature codes pursuant to Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/8778 . _________________ 78 OJ L 256, 7.9.1987 p. 1.

(20) The textile sector is resource intensive. While, in relation to both the production of raw materials and textiles, most of the pressures and impacts related to the consumption of clothing, footwear and household textiles in the Union occur in third countries, they also affect the Union due to their global impact on climate and the environment. Therefore, preventing, preparing for re-use and recycling textile waste can help reduce the global environmental footprint of the sector, including in the Union. In addition, the current resource-inefficient waste management of textile waste is not in line with the waste hierarchy and leads to environmental harm both in the Union and in third countries, including through greenhouse gas emissions from incineration and landfilling.

Recital 20 a (new)
(20a) Implementing the requirements, systems, objectives and additional obligations laid down in this Directive is key to the Member States achieving a circular economy in order to create new jobs, strengthen their economies and bring about greater stability. Implementing the separate collection, at source, of all fractions of recyclable waste mentioned in this Directive, while keeping all stakeholders constantly informed, is key to achieving a circular economy.

Recital 24
(24) Used and waste textiles, textile- related and footwear products should be collected separately from other waste streams, such as metals, paper and cardboard, glass, plastics, wood and bio- waste from 1 January 2025 to maintain their reusability and potential for high- quality recycling. Considering the environmental impact and the loss of materials due to used and waste textiles not being separately collected, and consequently not treated in an environmentally sound manner, the collection network of used and waste textiles, textile-related and footwear products should cover the whole territory of Member States including the outermost regions, be close to the end-user and not target only areas and products where the collection is profitable. The collection network should be organised in cooperation with other actors active in the waste management and re-use sectors, such as municipallocal authorities and social enterprises. In view of the significant environmental and climate benefits associated with re-use, the primary and secondary purpose of the collection network should be the collection of re-usable and recyclable textile, textile- related and footwear products accordingly. Since the consumer is not trained to distinguish between re-usable and recyclable items, the collection systems should, including for logistical efficiency purposes, provide for thededicated collection receptacles that collect both used and waste items together. High collection rates would drive high re-use performance and quality recycling in the textile supply chains, boost the uptake of quality secondary raw materials and support the investment planning in the textile sorting and processing infrastructure. In order to verify and improve the effectiveness of the collection network and the information campaigns, regular compositional surveys at least at NUTS 2 level should be carried out on mixed municipal waste collected to determine the amount of waste textiles and footwear therein. In addition, information on the performance of the separate collection systems and the attained annual separate collection rate should be calculated and made publicly available annually by the producer responsibility organisations.
