Brominated Flame Retardants

Appendix 7

Import, Export and Production of Brominated Flame Retardants and other Bromine Compounds 1993-1997

The following table is based on the commodity statistics from Statistics Denmark, Import and export data are derived from "Udenrigshandelen". Production data are derived from "Varestatistik for Industrien". Supply = import + production - export. Selected bromine chemicals with a high turn over of bromine are included in the table. The commodity codes have changed during the period and all relevant commodity codes are included in the table. Data used in table 3.1 of the main report are indicated as bold.
