EcoDDS authorized representative
for non-EU sellers in France.
EcoDDS is the approved French eco-organism for household diffuse chemical products (déchets diffus spécifiques, DDS): paints, solvents, glues, treatment products and other reactive chemicals used by households, covering categories 3 to 10 of the chemicals stream.
EcoDDS organises the safe collection and treatment of leftover household chemicals through waste centres and retailer take-back points, so that hazardous residues are handled properly rather than poured away. Producers adhere, declare the products they place on the French market, and pay an eco-contribution scaled to product type and hazard.
Any company placing household chemical products such as paints, varnishes, solvents, adhesives, or garden and maintenance treatment products on the French market, whether established in France, elsewhere in the EU, or outside the EU. The trigger is the first placement on the French market, not the seller location.
- A US paint and coatings brand selling on French DIY platforms
- A Chinese adhesives manufacturer supplying French retailers
- A UK garden-treatment brand shipping to French consumers
