ESPP Phosphorus Workshops

19 - 20 November 2025

Brussels, Belgium

In the framework of the Raw Materials Week 2025 in Brussels, the European Sustainable Phosphorus Platform (ESPP) organizes two high-level workshops on:

• Phosphorus as a Critical Raw Material
• White Phosphorus (P₄)

Phosphorus is essential for food security, agriculture, and key industries, yet Europe remains almost entirely import-dependent. Join us to explore how to secure EU supply, boost recycling, and discuss whether P₄ should be recognised as a Strategic Raw Material under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act.

Meet representatives of EU institutions, international organisations, industry, and research, including experts from the European Commission, FAO, OCP, Yara, Ragn-Sells, Prayon, Clariant, First Phosphate, Italmatch, Lanxess, ICL, and several leading EU research projects.

FlashPhos will be part of it as well, with Christian Schmidberger, (University of Stuttgart) and Carlos Galeano (Italmatch) presenting the project’s background and goals.
