SIGAUS updates its market quota, which is placed at 86.87%

After the latest independent study on the industrial oils market that is consumed in Spain, SIGAUS has updated its market quota: the percentage over the total volume represented by the oils commercialised by the adhered companies (85.67%). As a majority IMS, SIGAUS voluntarily covers a level of fraud and a margin of error that add 1.20 percentage points to this figure, therefore the quota assumed by SIGAUS in terms of responsibility and funding of the used oil generated in Spain is 86.87%, 3 decimal points more than in 2017. This funding quota will be applied with a retroactive nature from 1 January 2018.

The study, undertaken at the beginning of this year by the consulting agency PwC with data from 2017, describes a situation similar to that analyzed a year ago, with a representation quota of companies adhered to SIGAUS of approximately 85.5% (85.67% now compared to 85.33% last year) and total market growth of 1.5%, from 338,464 t to 343,430 t.

These figures refer to the industrial oils commercialized in Spain and that are subject to the various regulations on the Extended Responsibility of the Producer (ERP), whether Royal Decree 679/2006 on used oils or the recent regulations on waste from electrical and electronic devices (Royal Decree 110/2015) and vehicles at the end of their useful life (Royal Decree 20/2017), which transfer the responsibility for the used oil contained in the same to the manufacturers of certain devices and vehicles.

Indeed, the study confirms the relevance of these market fractions where the waste is the responsibility of agents other than the industrial oil manufacturers. In the case of oils for the first filling of vehicles (or components of the same) that will generate waste in Spain (therefore, excluding exported vehicles or components), this market reaches 4.95% of the total used industrial oil subject to ERP (4.84% in the previous study).

During 2018, SIGAUS was responsible for funding the management of 86.87% of the used oil in Spain, 0.30% more than the market quota from the previous year

For its part, the market for oils for electrical and electronic devices maintains a small market quota of 0.63%, although it experienced significant growth of 33% in comparison to the previous study.

Jointly, the industrial oils commercialized in Spain and subject to ERP represent 82% of the total market, with the remaining 18% corresponding to greases, oils for marine and aviation use and process oils (fractions not subject to ERP and that have also grown from the 16% of last year).

With all of this, the quota assumed by SIGAUS regarding the funding for management of used oils generated in Spain, from January 1st 2018, is 86.87%, 3 decimal points above the previous year. Said quota includes the assumption that SIGAUS has been undertaking, as the predominant IMS in the sector, voluntarily, of the percentage of industrial oils commercialized by "free riders" (unidentified manufacturers that do not pertain to any of the other fractions analyzed), 1.10% of the total, as well as a margin of error of 0.10%.
