TNU Updates its 2023 Rates

TNU has modified its tyre management fees in order to update its relation to the current realities in the agricultural sector

The current categorisation of F1 is adjusted to F1A and F1B and the management costs of the G1 and G3 categories have been updated.

TNU modulates its rates based on different tyre categories, and the costs necessary so that the provision of the end-of-use tyre management service maintains at all times an adequate cost-efficiency relationship in economic, social and environmental terms.

For these purposes, the TNU Board of Directors has considered it appropriate and necessary to modify the F1 categorisation, Agricultural Weight < 50 kg, because the weight range covered in the previous categorisation was too wide and produced a certain disproportionality in the application. of the rate, so the decision has been made to subdivide this category into two:

F1A.- Agricultural with Weight ≤ 25 kg

F1B.- Agricultural with Weight > 25 and < 50 kg

This subdivision continues to respect the criteria approved and published by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITERD), as well as the categories established in the Producer Registry and provides greater equity in the financial contribution to the system

As a consequence of the above, the new pricing is detailed below and will apply from September 1, 2023:

It is also remembered that the tyres subject to declaration to the system are:

1. New tyres manufactured in Spain and new tyres from intra-Community acquisition or imports from third countries.

2. Second-hand tyres from intra-Community acquisition or imports from third countries.

3. Tyres prepared for reuse in authorised treatment centres of vehicles at the end of their useful life and marketed as second-hand tyres,

4. Retreaded tyres on imported casings, manufactured in Spain, and retreaded tyres from intra-Community acquisition or imports from third countries.
