In view of the waste database to be developed by end of 2019, we requested the European Commission to :

  1. Limit the information requested to manufacturers in line with the legal framework
  2. Carry out an impact assessment to avoid disproportionate and unjustified requirements
  3. Ensure our data will be handled in respect of the European intellectual property rights, data privacy and commercial secrets
  4. Protect our industry competitiveness and not to create a competitive disadvantage for equipment produced in the EU
