ETRMA comments on the EU Bioeconomy Strategy

The European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers Association (ETRMA) welcomes the opportunity to provide comments on the European Commission’s update of the EU Bioeconomy Strategy.

As a key user of bio-based materials, the EU tyre industry encourages the European Commission to acknowledge the sector’s contribution to advancing bio-based solutions in the updated Bioeconomy Strategy. We also highlight the importance of a supportive regulatory framework for circular and bio-based materials, as well as continuous support for innovation that reduces reliance on imported raw materials. ETRMA supports the European Commission to consider the following elements when updating the EU Bioeconomy Strategy:

• Support the European Tyre Manufacturers’ Rubber Strategy
• Clarify rules for circular raw materials
• Secure sustainable and resilient biomass supply
