Acting for the circular economy
The regulatory framework of Extended Producer Responsibility gives you the opportunity to go further in the circular economy and commit your company to a virtuous approach in favor of the environment.
With the support of Ecomaison, implement solutions that promote reuse, repair, eco-design and the incorporation of recycled materials into your products.
Discover all our services for a win-win dynamic: win for your brand, win for your customers, win for your employees, win for the environment.
Reuse is one of Ecomaison's priorities in order to accelerate the move towards a circular economy.
We have therefore rethought the entire logistics chain, and are investing to give Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) structures access to a larger, higher-quality pool of products. The used products you take back should be given priority if they are in good condition.

Ecomaison collects used products from over 2,600 retailer sites equipped to offer take-back services to their customers.
For SSE structures to be able to benefit from these deposits, it is imperative that the objects are well preserved. Ecomaison can help you organize your collection in the best possible conditions, and put you in touch with local associations who can collect your waste.
Our goal is to direct 10,000 tonnes of furniture to recycling centers.
Supporting re-use
Ecomaison brings together distributors and players in the Social and Solidarity Economy
Ecomaison has created partnerships with digital platforms specialized in second-hand goods - such as Geev or Izidor - to facilitate trade-in by retailers and encourage re-use.
In particular, these partnerships help retailers to estimate the resale price of products, launch a second-hand offer, and ensure the traceability of products taken back and directed towards re-use.
Promoting repair
Repair is a new service to offer your customers
Providing your customers with precise information on the environmental quality of your products is one of the aspects governed by Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).

Eco-design is an approach that takes into account all the environmental aspects of a product's design and development process. The aim? To reduce its environmental impact throughout its life cycle.
Ecomaison can help you develop your eco-design approach.
Would you like to benefit from support to boost or accelerate your eco-design approach? Whatever your sector of activity, we launch two calls for eco-design projects a year, in spring and autumn. Winning member companies benefit from our methodological and technical support, through a 6-month pilot project. The aim of this pilot is to study the feasibility of the project before launching it on a larger scale.
Every year, Ecomaison organizes Innovation Day. For 24 hours, members and innovators selected for the quality of their solutions come together. The aim: to exchange ideas and co-construct the answers industries need to meet tomorrow's environmental and regulatory challenges.
Ecomaison has set up a global eco-modulation system for its eco-taxes to reward eco-design initiatives. Rates are modulated according to the recyclability of products, the use of renewable resources and the extension of their useful life. The scheme also includes bonuses for the incorporation of recycled materials and the provision of spare parts.
Take advantage of eco-modulation
Your eco-participation can be modulated according to your eco-design efforts.
Are you familiar with all the facets of recyclability? Recyclability begins at the product design stage and continues throughout the product's life. It also depends on the territory where the object is manufactured, sold and collected.
Above all, it is a source of innovation. An object that isn't recyclable today could be in a few months or years. Similarly, the mass of usable recycled materials from a collected object can increase as technical advances are made.
Ecomaison gives the necessary impetus to players who feel ready to go further in eco-design through its regular calls for projects, and relays the latest innovations in the field to its members.
Ecomaison provides for the payment of a bonus linked to extended useful life when you make spare parts for the products you sell available to your customers.
Do you have a project in mind? Do you have ideas? Ecomaison regularly launches calls for projects and expressions of interest to boost innovation in eco-design and improve material recycling performance.
Using recycled materials to manufacture new products is essential to limit the pressure on natural resources. It is also essential in the circular economy scheme. Ecomaison supports its members and manufacturers in this approach to using recycled materials from the Furniture, Building, DIY-Garden and Toys sectors.
Support for innovation, contacts with innovators and manufacturers, incentives for the incorporation of recycled materials (IMR)... Ecomaison deploys a wide range of services to encourage you.
Do you have a project in mind? Do you have ideas? Ecomaison regularly launches calls for projects and expressions of interest to boost innovation in eco-design and improve material recycling performance.
To qualify for the bonus for incorporating recycled materials, you need to specify the source, quality and quantity. There are minimum volumes to be respected and declarations to be made. Ecomaison guides you step by step and puts you in touch with partner companies that supply the appropriate materials.
Good plan
Ecomaison rewards eco-design efforts with bonuses and eco-modulation of rates
Furniture, building products and construction materials: the volumes of wood that Ecomaison organizes for recycling are constantly increasing. In fact, we are the leading supplier of recycled wood in France, with 800,000 tonnes per year. To ensure even more efficient recycling and recovery, Ecomaison explores new solutions and supports innovation.
