While the production of polymeric materials on an industrial scale falls under the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, other activities like the conversion, transport or storage of plastic pellets, usually operated by small and medium-sized enterprises, are not covered by that Directive. Moreover, the Reference Document on Best Available Techniques in the Production of Polymers of August 2007, established pursuant to Council Directive 96/61/EC, does not address the specific issue of plastic pellet losses.
