Shared governance for greater clarity and dialogue

Announced on June 4, 2025, the "Collectif des Éco-Organismes" marks a major turning point in the structuring of EPR in France. By joining forces under the law of 1901, the eco-organizations intend to strengthen their coordination, as well as clarify their role with respect to marketers, public authorities and stakeholders.

Their mission is twofold:

• Enhance the value of skills, experience and innovations within eachEPR Scheme ;
  
  
• Put forward a collective position on changes to the regulatory framework, scales and operational practices.
  
  

A willingness to listen and build

In a sector that is undergoing rapid change (AGEC law, modulation, environmental labelling, etc.), this grouping has a clear objective: to listen more closely to expectations on the ground, including those of producers, distributors, local authorities, craftsmen and players in the social economy.

The Collectif's president, Dominique Mignon (Ecomaison), accompanied by Nicolas Defrenne (Treasurer, Refashion) and Arnaud Humbert-Droz (Secretary, Citeo), explains that this dynamic is part of an ambitious roadmap: to accompany the transformations of the EPR while reinforcing the transparency and legibility of the eco-organizations' actions.

What this means for producers and marketers

This grouping reinforces a message: EPR compliance is not just an administrative constraint. It has become a shared strategic challenge:

• More coordination between EPR sectors (TLC, EEE, Packaging, Building, etc.);
  
  
• Better information on changes to the scale and services offered by eco-organizations;
  
  
• Increased dialogue between reuse and recycling players and marketers.
  
  

For companies, this means greater stability and anticipation, and potentially a simplification of future procedures, particularly in terms of declarations or the structuring of voluntary initiatives.
