EPR comes into force
100%
dedicated to professional packaging
You are subject to it if you are considered a “producer” under the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) scheme for professional packaging. There are three main scenarios: you manufacture, or have manufactured, packaging under your own brand; you manufacture, or have manufactured, products packaged in sales packaging; or you import products of which you are not the end user.
The distinction is not based on the packaging itself, but on who generates the waste. Professional packaging is packaging whose waste is generated by a professional in the course of their business. The EPR scheme on professional packaging covers packaging placed on the market for professionals, as opposed to household packaging, which is covered by a separate EPR scheme.
You must fulfil your EPR obligations through an approved eco-organisation or an individual system approved by the French State In practice, almost all companies choose the eco-organisation route, which is simpler and less costly to implement.
No. There are no membership or application fees. Twiice’s operating costs are included in the eco-contribution fee schedule.
You can join directly through MyTwiice.
Twiice is the only eco-organisation 100% dedicated to professional packaging. While other eco-organisations cover several EPR schemes, Twiice focuses all its expertise on professional packaging: its materials, uses and specific constraints. Since 2019, we have carried out 30 reuse and recycling pilot projects with industrial companies across all sectors.
