Climate efforts hampered by growing black market for illegal gases in the EU
“The European chemical industry supports the European Green Deal and Europe’s ambition to become climate neutral in 2050. The fight against illegal trade in HFCs is crucial not only for achieving Europe’s 2050 ambition but also in the fight against organised crime, which is why Cefic fully supports the pledge to end the illegal HFC trade.”
Marco Mensink – Director General, Cefic – 2020
“ARKEMA is committed to phase down high GWP HFCs . It is essential that all companies respect the F-Gas regulation and its quota system and ensure that they are not using illegal HFCs”
Christophe Villain – Global Group president Fluorochemicals, Arkema – 2020
“The illegal importation of HFCs into Europe attacks a key tenet of the EU’s climate commitments, damages the livelihoods of small business owners, fuels organized crime, costs EU Member States millions in lost tax revenue, and represents a real and significant safety risk to refrigerant users. Honeywell is calling on policymakers across EU Member States, the industry and its value chain to work together to help defeat the scourge of illegally traded refrigerants.”
Darius Adamczyk – Chairman and CEO, Honeywell – 2020
“We at Daikin do our utmost all over the world to end the illegal trade of HFCs. And we encourage every member of the refrigerant value chain to join the fight against the HFCs black market. If all of us only sell or buy to and from reliable sources and if everyone respects the EU’s F-gas quota obligations, we can have a substantially positive impact on the refrigerant industry. But even more importantly, we help to protect the climate and ensure the well-being of future generations!”
Mikihiro Kodama – Managing Director, Daikin – 2020
“We are proud to take the fight against the illegal trade in HFCs one step further. At Koura we are committed to promoting ethical values which is why we have pledged to do what we can to stop the illegal market for HFCs. This trade is not only against the law, it also threatens Europe’s environmental goals. We cannot fight it alone which is why I would encourage you to join us in pledging to #SayNoToIllegalHFCs”
Sameer Bharadwaj – President – Koura, 2020
“At Chemours, we are committed to a greener future, which urgently demands an end to the trade of illegal refrigerants. For a cleaner, greener planet, please join us in pledging to help end the sale of illegal HFCs.”
Mark Vergnano – President and Chief Executive Officer – The Chemours Company – 2020
“The fight against the illegal import of HFCs into the EU is one of OLAF’s operational priorities, in line with the European Commission’s ambition to make Europe the first climate neutral continent by 2050 with its European Green Deal. We encourage initiatives like this pledge in order to raise awareness of this illegal trade and share best practices between all stakeholders.”
Ville Itälä – Director-General, European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) – 2020
“We need to eradicate the black market for HFCs. It is undermining EU climate goals, feeding criminal activity and compromising the transition to greener alternatives”
Murli Sukhwani, Chemours – 2020
La aplicación inadecuada de la ley facilita el comercio ilícito de HFC. Las organizaciones criminales se infiltran en la cadena de suministro legítima y venden productos ilegales a empresas legítimas, muchas de ellas pequeñas y medianas empresas (PYME) que a menudo ni siquiera saben que están comprando productos ilegales
Felix Flohr, Daikin – 2020
Un’applicazione della legge inadeguata facilita il mercato illegale di HFC. Le organizzazioni criminali si infiltrano nelle catene di fornitura autorizzate e vendono prodotti illegali ad aziende in regola, molte delle quali sono piccole e medie imprese (PMI) che spesso non sanno nemmeno di acquistare prodotti illegali
Felix Flohr, Daikin – 2020
Die unzureichende Durchsetzung der Gesetze erleichtert den illegalen HFKW-Handel. Kriminelle Organisationen unterwandern die legalen Lieferketten. Sie verkaufen illegale Produkte an seriöse Unternehmen. Oft sind das kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen (KMUs), die meist nicht wissen, dass sie illegale Kältemittel kaufen
Felix Flohr, Daikin – 2020
Une mauvaise application de la loi facilite le commerce illicite de HFC. Les organisations criminelles infiltrent la chaîne d’approvisionnement légitime et vendent des produits illégaux à des entreprises légitimes, dont beaucoup de petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) qui, souvent, n’ont pas conscience qu’elles achètent des produits illégaux
Felix Flohr, Daikin – 2020
Gracias a un análisis de flujo comercial realizado por Oxera Consulting LLP, ahora entendemos la magnitud de este problema. Estimamos que hasta la asombrosa cifra de 34 millones de toneladas de CO2eq de HFC podrían haber entrado ilegalmente en Europa en 2018.
Tim Vink, Honeywell – 2020
Grazie all’analisi sui flussi di scambio portata avanti da Oxera Consulting LLP, ora comprendiamo la gravità del problema. Stimiamo infatti che fino a ben 34 milioni di CO2eq di HFC potrebbero essere entrati in Europa illegalmente nel 2018
Tim Vink, Honeywell – 2020
Dank einer von der Oxera Consulting LLP durchgeführten Analyse der Handelsströme verstehen wir nun das Ausmaß des Problems. Wir schätzen, dass 2018 illegale HFKWs mit einem CO2-Äquivalent von bis zu 34 Millionen Tonnen nach Europa gelangt sind.
Tim Vink, Honeywell – 2020
Grâce à une analyse des flux commerciaux réalisée par Oxera Consulting LLP, nous comprenons maintenant l’ampleur du problème. Nous estimons que jusqu’à 34 millions de tonnes de CO2eq de HFC pourraient être entrées illégalement en Europe en 2018, un chiffre stupéfiant.
Tim Vink, Honeywell – 2020
“Las importaciones ilegales son atractivas para los contrabandistas. Nuestra colaboración con la impresa de investigaciones privadas Kroll continúa revelando nuevas profundidades del problema. Las muchas formas en que se importan los HFC ilegales plantean una gran preocupación y muestran que el problema requiere un enfoque unificado y una solución común”
Dave Smith, Koura – 2020
“Illegale Importe sind für Schmuggler attraktiv. Unsere Zusammenarbeit mit dem Wirtschaftsermittler Kroll offenbart immer wieder neue Facetten des Problems. Die vielen Wege, auf denen illegale HFKWs importiert werden, sind besorgniserregend. Sie zeigen, dass das Problem einen gemeinsamen Ansatz und eine Multi-Stakeholder-Lösung erfordert”
Dave Smith, Koura – 2020
“Le importazioni illegali sono allettanti per i trafficanti. La nostra collaborazione con Kroll per condurre un’indagine privata continua a rivelare nuovi aspetti del problema. I molti modi in cui gli HFC vengono importati illegalmente sollevano un grande questione e mostrano come il problema richieda un approccio univoco e una soluzione comune”
Dave Smith, Koura – 2020
“Les importations illégales sont attrayantes pour les contrebandiers. Notre collaboration avec Kroll, consultants enquêteurs privés, ne cesse de révéler de nouvelles dimensions au problème. Les nombreuses formes sous lesquelles les HFC sont illégalement importés sont très préoccupantes et cela démontre que le problème nécessite une approche unifiée et une solution commune”
Dave Smith, Koura – 2020
“Inadequate enforcement makes illicit HFC trade easy. Criminal organisations infiltrate the legitimate supply chain and sell illegal products to legitimate businesses, many of them small and medium-sized enterprises (SMES) who often do not even know that they are buying illegal products”
Felix Flohr, Daikin – 2020
Thanks to a trade flow analysis carried out by Oxera Consulting LLP, we now understand the scale of this issue. We estimate that up to a staggering 34 million tonnes CO2e of HFCs could have come into Europe illegally in 2018.
Tim Vink, Honeywell – 2020
“Illegal imports are attractive to smugglers. Our collaboration with private investigator Kroll continues to reveal new depths of the problem. The many ways through which illegal HFCs are imported pose a major concern and show that the problem requires a unified approach and a multi-stakeholder solution”
