    Unmixed hard-rubber and other rubber waste

Use B3040 for unmixed hard-rubber and other rubber waste as a Basel List B waste without an Annex III hazard.

Hard rubber and other rubber waste that is not mixed with other wastes. Non-hazardous ebonite & rubber scrap.

Is Basel B3040 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. Basel B3040 is on Basel List B, so material matching it is normally not hazardous under the Convention. It becomes hazardous if Annex I constituents give it an Annex III hazardous characteristic. SOR/2021-25 and its exclusions decide Canadian federal control.

On a federally regulated international shipment, the applicant enters the waste classification in the waste-line details of the federal notification in CNMTS. The movement rules and exclusions apply.

What does Basel B3040 cover?

Covers hard-rubber waste and scrap, including ebonite, and other rubber waste not named elsewhere, as long as it isn't mixed with other waste.
