02 December 2025 CEFEP General Assembly 2025

The General Assembly was attended by representatives from Steinbacher, NMC, Union Foam, Kaimann, Armacell, CEFEP’s Technical Working Group and the Working Group on Quality Monitoring. CEFEP thanks all participants for their constructive contributions!

CEFEP members came together in Paris on 13 November for this year’s General Assembly. The meeting brought constructive discussions, strong engagement from across the industry and the opportunity to review recent activities and coordinate the association’s work for the year ahead. CEFEP was pleased to welcome Malte Witt (Armacell) to the Board, strengthening the association’s work going forward.

A joint industry concept on the recyclability of FEF was presented, outlining initial considerations for future circularity efforts. Members also reviewed recent technical statements submitted to European standardisation bodies and prepared upcoming contributions to relevant policy consultations. Providing clear, evidence-based input to regulatory and standardisation processes remains a core task for CEFEP.
