Question 10051 — waste

Summary

Ms. Anne-Sophie Ronceret draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity, Forests, Sea and Fisheries to the conditions for implementing the new extended producer responsibility (EPR) sector applicable to professional packaging. Indeed, established by the law relating to the fight against waste and the circular economy promulgated on February 10, 2020, this sector must come into force. into force on January 1, 2026. However, the regulatory texts which must specify the practical arrangements are only expected in the fall, which will leave companies with insufficient time to prepare for new and complex obligations. In addition, compliance will involve several steps: identifying whether they fall under EPR, identifying the packaging concerned, putting in place the necessary internal tools, training their teams and anticipate the financial impacts, even though the budgets for 2026 have already been decided and the period of commercial negotiations will begin. Furthermore, the process of approving eco-organizations and individual systems will itself take several months after the publication of the texts. Many companies, beyond just wholesale, fear finding themselves in a situation of involuntary non-compliance as soon as on January 1, 2026. In this context, she asks what measures the Government intends to put in place to ensure a gradual and secure entry into force of the EPR sector for professional packaging and whether the hypothesis of a moratorium, mentioned by several professional organizations, could be studied to guarantee the success of this system.
