EURIC and ETRMA call for the development of EU-wide End of Waste criteria for the End of Life Tyre-derived Rubber Waste Stream

ETRMA and EuRIC are committed to support the European Commission in developing EU harmonized End of Waste (EoW) criteria.

The rubber supply chain is ready for the next step in the advancement and uptake of the recycling of ELT-derived Rubber.

This will secure that trade across European borders happens normally in equal conditions and with equivalent opportunities across borders, while reducing the administrative burdens associated with trading.

Since many regulations, like Declarations of Performance for construction products, or the REACH restriction of chemical substances only apply once the material has ceased to be waste, EU harmonized EoW criteria will also secure the material’s accountability for safety and quality criteria.
