Spanish EPR organization SIGNUS switches to end-of-life tire tariff system based on weight
SIGNUS, the major Spanish EPR program, has announced an adjustment in the structure of tire categories in the pricing table, which was detailed by Gabriel Leal, the General Director, and Julián Madruga, the Director of Relationships with Affiliated Companies. SIGNUS tariffs have been structured based on the use of the tyre rather than its unit weight since its inception. This methodology allowed for subjective interpretations, producing market confusion. As a result, and in accordance with the notion of fairness, SIGNUS' Board of Directors has approved a reformulation of the categories based on weight sections of the new tyre in order to adjust the relevant tariff more objectively.
