The TNU held a new session of its National Information Tour on Royal Decree 712/2025, approved in August, this Monday, 15 December, in the Canary Islands
The latest TNU event on Royal Decree brought together producers, importers and distributors from various islands across the archipelago, who were interested in understanding the implications of the new legal framework that will regulate the management of End-of-Life Tyres (ELT).
The nature of the Canary Islands gives it unique logistical characteristics, where the management, transport and traceability of tyres require additional effort from both TNU and producers and importers. Nevertheless, the participation of companies from different islands demonstrated the shared commitment to adapting to the new Royal Decree and to the continuous improvement of environmental management.
During the session, TNU’s technical team provided a practical analysis of the main developments introduced by the Royal Decree, including revised prevention plans, full traceability of tyres throughout the commercial chain, more detailed and transparent declarations, and mandatory affiliation to a single SCRAP, with prior notification in the event of a change of system. These measures establish a stricter compliance framework, which is particularly relevant in island territories where logistics present greater challenges.
The Canary Islands session forms another part of TNU’s ongoing efforts to inform and support its members in the implementation of Royal Decree 712/2025, which will fully enter into force in 2026.
In recent weeks, TNU has held sessions in Zaragoza, Barcelona and Madrid, and following the event in the Canary Islands, the tour will continue in other autonomous communities over the coming months.
