Three years after adoption, the Circular Economy Action Plan is fully completed and it sketches out future challenges to shape our economy and pave the way towards a climate-neutral, circular economy where pressure on natural and freshwater resources as well as ecosystems is minimised. 

Among the key documents of the package there is the Staff working document on Sustainable Products in a Circular Economy, containing the result of the Environmental Footprint pilot phase (2013-2018), following the European commission Recommendation on the use of the Product and Organisation Environmental Footprint (PEF and OEF) methods.
