The board emphasised the importance for the industry and its entire supply chain to be supported by an appropriate regulatory framework, while continuing to nurture dialogue and cooperation with European Institutions and relevant stakeholders.

“As we recently shared during our meeting with Commissioner, Thierry Breton, we have the ambition to contribute even further to increased climate change mitigation targets, tackling tyre abrasion and continuing to improve road safety, whilst contributing to an increasingly circular economy”.

“Our critical mass is growing and together we can create strong synergies to work even more efficiently towards a safer and greener Europe.”
