The objective of this Regulation is to protect the environment by reducing emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases. To achieve this end, the Regulation:
establishes rules on containment, use, recovery and destruction of fluorinated greenhouse gases, and on related
ancillary measures;
imposes conditions on the placing on the market of specific products and equipment that contain, or whose
functioning relies upon, fluorinated greenhouse gases;
imposes conditions on specific uses of fluorinated greenhouse gases; and
establishes quantitative limits for the placing on the market of hydrofluorocarbons.
