The European Drinking Water Directive introduces new tighter regulations on the maximum lead content in drinking water and will have a significant impact on the European Brass Rod industry.
The IWCC Brass Rod Committee has worked with other European industry associations to produce a briefing paper aiming to explain what the implementation of the Directive means in practice for the European brass industry, and downstream manufacturers.
