Farnham, UK – October 2026  – The Centre for Sustainable Design® at UCA, in association with The British Standards Institution, will host a free webinar on 10th November 2026 to help fashion, clothing and textile businesses understand the EU's Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition (ECGT) Directive (EU) 2024/825 and its practical implications, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Taking place from 10:00 to 11:00 AM (GMT) via Teams, the session arrives as the new rules come into force across the EU from 27 September 2026, placing tighter scrutiny on how fashion and textile businesses communicate sustainability to consumers.
