Eurobitume operates three expert committees:

  • Health, Safety and the Environment (HSE)
  • Technical
  • Communications (PRC)

Each is dedicated to intensive programmes, to provide guidance and support for members and their customers. These committees research the scientific and technical issues relating to the handling, application and long-term use of bitumen. They produce relevant data for regulators, along with expert advice and practical guidelines to inform best practice throughout the European bitumen industry.
