Question 9008 — waste

Summary

Mrs. Julie Delpech draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological Transition, Biodiversity, Forests, Sea and Fisheries to the difficulties encountered by the textile, household linen and shoe collection and sorting sector (TLC). This sector, which employs more than 3,000 people throughout the country, a significant proportion of whom are integrated through economic activity, ensures an essential mission of collection, sorting, reuse and recovery of used textiles. It is today weakened by a persistent gap between the real cost of sorting, estimated at 304 euros per tonne, and the level of financial support currently paid. In this context, the Le Relais association announced the cessation of textile collection as of July 15, 2025, a decision which reflects the growing tensions within the sector. Several actors also point out the need to clarify the methods of management and mobilization of resources by the eco-organization Refashion, which plays a central role in financing the system under extended producer responsibility. It wishes to know what measures it intends to take to support stakeholders in the search for solutions, guarantee appropriate financing of sorting costs, organize the management of textiles without current outlets and preserve the sector's objectives in terms of circular economy, reuse and social integration.
