Circular design of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment - Part 4: Environmental and circularity requirements and guidelines; German and English version prEN 17988-4:2023
Abstract
This document specifies the environmental and circularity requirements for the components of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment which contain plastics. It will establish sustainability principles that minimize the negative impact of the plastic components of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment on the environment, taking into account the impact on its performance (e.g. catchability or life span). The circular and environmental design of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment focuses on: — selection/ sourcing of materials and components — manufacture/assembly — placement/ installation/ deployment of the gear/ equipment — use and maintenance repair — end-of-use stage Transport, storage and distribution are taken into account at the different stages, where applicable. Excluded: Design aspects related to fishing or aquaculture techniques or management.
