ETRMA expresses regret towards EUDR delay

The EU Council has agreed to postpone the application of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) by 12 months, a decision that the European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers Association “regrets”. The tyre makers’ representative believes that pushing back the start dates “brings a new phase of uncertainty” into an industry that “needs predictability, and action from the European Commission to bring further clarity and solve the remaining issues standing in the way of a full and fair implementation of the Regulation.”

ETRMA members boost tyre volumes in Q3 2024, but imports the winner since 2019

,

The European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers’ Association (ETRMA) has published its members’ replacement tyre sales figures for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024, comparing these results with statistics for tyre imports during the period. Adam McCarthy, the association’s Secretary General, notes that while member sales volumes for Consumer segment tyres are improving, mainly driven by rising demand for all-season tyres, volumes are still negative in the Truck segment. Significantly, both are still far from their pre-pandemic volumes.

Last week, the Coalition of Independent Service Providers (ISP) wrote to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, urging her to prioritise the already-prepared proposal for a legislation on access to in-vehicle data as part of her first 100-day plan. As part of ISP, the European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers’ Association (ETRMA) states that it “strongly agrees” on the importance of ensuring fair competition in the automotive and mobility services markets, emphasising the need for sector-specific regulation to complement the Data Act.

Details of this research were published in December 2022 and in March 2023. More recently, Michelin has made the system for analysing emitted light particles available to the tyre industry and to ETRMA (European Tyre & Rubber Manufacturers’ Association).
