About AECC
The role of AECC
AECC, the Association for Emissions Control and Climate, is the international, Brussels-based association of European companies operating worldwide in the research, development, testing and manufacture of key sustainable technologies for mobile and stationary applications. AECC was first set up in 1978 and is a non-profit organisation with a scientific purpose.
Members’ products include: substrates for catalysts and filters; catalysts (substrates with catalytic materials incorporated or coated); adsorbers; filter-based technologies; and core components for fuel cells and electrolysers.
AECC members’ emission control technologies are integrated into the exhaust systems of cars, commercial vehicles, buses, motorcycles and construction equipment in Europe, as well as chimneys of a wide variety of industrial installations. It is increasingly being used in railway locomotives and railcars, ships and inland waterway vessels and pleasure craft.
The principal objectives of the Association are:
TO PROMOTE
the technological and economic development of sustainable components and systems
TO STRIVE
