Brussels, 16 April 2026 – Recycling Europe is pleased to welcome Galloo as Gold-level sponsor, reinforcing the company’s commitment to advancing metals and plastics circularity and supporting competitive, well-functioning markets for recycled materials in Europe.

Julia Ettinger, Secretary-General of Recycling Europe, said: “We are delighted to welcome Galloo as a Gold sponsor. Already a trusted partner across our work—from metals and plastics to ship recycling—Galloo’s support comes at a pivotal moment as Recycling Europe strengthens its competitiveness and steps up its advocacy for Europe’s recyclers.”

At a time of increasing regulatory uncertainty, Recycling Europe, which advocates the interests of European recyclers in Brussels, provides a unique platform to exchange and align positions on policy matters that are essential to advancing the EU’s green industrial agenda”.  

At a time when securing strong European demand for recycled materials, maintaining open international trade flows for recycled metals and addressing unfair competition in plastics are becoming increasingly critical, industry actors such as Galloo play a key role in ensuring the resilience and sustainability of Europe’s recycling value chains.
