[Tyres Europe @TyresEurope]

🎉 ​Yesterday, we officially presented Tyres Europe in Brussels, inviting partners to reflect with us on how tyre manufacturing in Europe contributes to competitiveness, innovation and a resilient industrial base.

Following opening remarks from Secretary General Adam McCarthy, Tyres Europe President Livio Magni outlined what our renewed identity represents for the European tyre industry, and we heard perspectives from MEP @raulhoz, MEP @FidanzaCarlo, and Arthur Corbin of Commissioner Séjourné’s Cabinet.​

The evening underlined the value of sustained dialogue. We look forward to continuing this work with policymakers and ensuring our sector is part of the conversations shaping Europe’s industrial and competitiveness agenda.

The #CompetitivenessCompass sets a strategic path for Europe’s industrial leadership. With the EU automotive industry at a turning point, we welcome the @EU_Commission's new #AutomotiveIndustryForum.

But let’s not overlook a key enabler: #tyres. As a critical part of mobility, they must be part of the conversation.

📢 Our proposal highlights how the tyre industry drives safety, sustainability & competitiveness.

Tonight, decision-makers in Brussels meet to decide the fate of the EU #DeforestationLaw

A one-year delay is bad enough: the loopholes the EPP wants to create would be a disaster.

It's crucial that governments don’t back down.

No changes to the Deforestation Law!

#EUDR

[EPP Group @EPPGroup]

Europe’s automotive industry is the backbone of our economy - driven by innovation, not red tape. 

At the @EPPGroup Car Summit, we listened to CEOs' concerns. 
Competitiveness, growth & independence: that’s the road we must drive on. 

@ManfredWeber 

#AutomotiveIndustry

[Pascal Canfin @pcanfin]

After this morning’s Council meeting, at least 24 out of 27 countries oppose changes to the deforestation law.
To ensure the 1 yr delay is met, the 🇪🇺 Parliament has no choice but to revert to the Commission’s original proposal. Any other strategy would put all at risk #EUDR

[Kathleen Van Brempt @kvanbrempt]

Absolute disgrace! Once again, the @EPPGroup breaks the cordon and forms a far-right majority to undermine and block European deforestation legislation. #deforestationlaw

[Tyres Europe @TyresEurope]

The whole natural rubber ecosystem, from producers, processors and traders to tyre and rubber goods manufacturers in Europe, needs certainty 👉 https://t.co/OTZ4hwYx9q

ETRMA is concerned about the amendments tabled to modify the @EU_Commission's proposal to extend the transition period of the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), which could open a new phase of uncertainty regarding the content of the Regulation and its timing, merely weeks away from the original date of implementation.

The European tyre and rubber industry strongly supports the EUDR's objectives and has made significant investments to ensure sustainable sourcing of EUDR-compliant natural rubber.

However, we further emphasise that only a fair and effective regulatory environment will help ensure compliant natural rubber flows into Europe and that the tyre industry remains a key partner in the EU's broader environmental and deforestation mitigation efforts.

On 14thNovember, ETRMA hopes that the @Europarl_EN will deliver the political and legal certainty that European businesses need.

#EUDR #Tyre #Rubber

[Alessandro Cascini @Alcascin]

All noble intentions that would require time for discussion, time for negotiation, time for approval and time for implementation. If politics is the art of realism, this is the moment to demonstrate it. #EUDR #RealPolitik

[EPP Group @EPPGroup]

The @EPPGroup proposes:

✅ Focusing deforestation-free checks on initial market introducers.
✅ Implementing the law once tracking systems are operational.
✅ Exempting sustainably managed countries from unnecessary requirements.

#DeforestationLaw

[Bridgestone EU Policy @BridgestoneEU]

If we were MEPs, we'd like to know @JessikaRoswall: What specific measures will you take to standardize definitions related to circularity, such as “sustainable material” and “recycled content,” to ensure more informed investment and purchasing decisions, particularly in relation to the Green Claims directive and the Eco-design for Sustainable Products Regulation?

[Bridgestone EU Policy @BridgestoneEU]

If we could be MEPs for a day, @steph_sejourne, we'd want to know: "With the potential of automotive data to drive forward the EU's Sustainable and Smart Mobility agenda, will the Commissioner-designate take action to complete the Data Act through secondary legislation that grants authorized service providers access to in-vehicle data?"

[FIA Region I @FIARegionI]

Sector-specific legislation is essential to allow fair access to #cardata and to unlock the full potential of the data-driven economy.

Read our latest letter to @vonderleyen, @EU_Commission President.

#connectedcars #accesstodata #vehicledata #dataact

[Bridgestone EU Policy @BridgestoneEU]

.@delcastillop reminded the EU Commission that the automotive industry needs sector-specific legislation on data access and sharing to complement the #DataAct. Parliament has been waiting for a proposal since 2023. The new Commissioner-candidate will be asked about this during the hearing. #EU #DataPolicy #AutomotiveIndustry #Smartmobility
