【组织简介】 At the end of October 1997, Europe's chemical hauliers formed the European Chemical Road Transport Association (ECRTA) during the 24th Logistics Meeting in Barcelona organised by the European Petrochemical Association (EPCA). The purpose was to provide a platform for representing their interests in discussions with both international regulatory bodies and major chemical producer associations. In addition to the carriage of chemicals by road, it was decided that ECRTA would rapidly provide strong support for the intermodal transport of such goods. Since then, the name has been changed to European Chemical Transport Association (ECTA), to reflect the fact that all modes of transportation (including rail and inland waterways) are represented.
ECTA has been granted by Royal Decree of 11 February 1999 legal personality as an international non-profit organisation in accordance with Belgian law.
ECTA has formed several working groups, many of them with chemical producers. The aim of these groups is to develop best practices, by means of standardisation, leading to improvement in safety, environmental protection and cost performance.
