ETRA calls for unity on artificial rubber turf

摘要

BRUSSELS—The European Tyre Recycling Association (ETRA) is calling on all stakeholders in the artificial rubber turf sector to come together to refute allegations that crumb rubber used in sports fields is harmful to humans and the environment. The ETRA's call for action is in response to a request from the European Commission for the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to examine the safety of crumb rubber, particularly with regard to its polyaromatic hydrocarbon content.
