‍Fiveyears after the AGEC law, where does the TLCEPR Scheme stand?

The principles are in place, the systems are in place, but the results are hard to come by: difficulties in structuring a local collection and recycling Scheme , lack of traceability, inconsistent eco-modulations, a gap between political ambition and industrial reality.

Tools in place, but limited impact

• Eco-modulations: while they encourage eco-design, some are poorly calibrated and can even lead to negative eco-contributions, contrary to the spirit of the EPR.
• Reuse and repair fund: initiatives are relevant, but under-financed and faced with structural obstacles (high costs, insufficient network of repairers, lack of reliable data).
• Environmental labelling: in the making, it still lacks clarity, European coherence and operational applicability.

A Scheme facing a systemic crisis

TheEPR TLC Scheme is currently facing saturation of 2nd-hand export outlets, jeopardizing the entire model. We urgently need to build alocal, circular Scheme : reuse in France and Europe, local recycling, enhanced traceability.

This change calls for :

• Redirecting investment towards the textile recycling industry
• Training for tomorrow's professions: repair, sorting, reconditioning, etc.
• Improved governance and simplified, effective control tools (ADEME, Syderep, etc.).
• European harmonization (PEFCR Footwear & Apparel, eco-design, waste transfer regulations, etc.).

Accelerating the transition: between political will and realistic terrain

The idea of a local circular economy is more relevant than ever. But it requires an ambitious strategy, aligned with the realities of the sectors: skills, outlets, investments, European coordination.

CompliancR is already committed to simplifying compliance, making data more reliable and transforming TLC EPR obligations into a lever for sustainability and market differentiation.
