TRACS is looking forward to 2013. Priorities will include recruiting many of the new operators who set up tyre businesses during 2012.

TRACS has been making notable inroads in convincing many recently set up businesses, to make proper waste management and assessment a priority.

TRACS say that sector compliance has been increasing overall and there is a wider industry and public understanding of TRACS’ important role in monitoring and tracking the proper channelling of waste tyre material

Other aims for 2013 include encouraging more companies in the waste collection sector to become members, continuing to invest in the most technologically advanced security and data management systems and procedures to ensure members’ confidentiality, as well as setting the industry standard for promoting proper tyre waste management procedures in Ireland.
