Batteries EPR compliance on ManoMano.
Non-EU sellers placing portable and industrial batteries on ManoMano need a France-established mandataire REP, registration with Corepile, Screlec, and an IDU on the public SYDEREP register before listings stay live. This page covers exactly what ManoMano requires for the portable and industrial batteries stream and how we deliver it.
When the portable and industrial batteries stream applies
Loose battery cells, batteries embedded in devices, portable or stationary
The relevant eco-organisms for this stream are Corepile, Screlec. Producers register with one (or more, for streams with multiple accredited eco-organisms) via the France-established mandataire REP. Each registration produces an IDU (Unique Producer ID) that ADEME publishes on the SYDEREP register.
How ManoMano enforces the portable and industrial batteries requirement
EPR verification at seller onboarding + category expansion. DIY, sports, garden, furniture all checked.
The verification flow: ManoMano queries SYDEREP for an IDU matching your legal entity on the portable and industrial batteries stream. If no match, your listings are flagged and the marketplace either prevents listing creation (for stricter platforms) or deactivates existing listings (for periodic-audit platforms).
Uploading your IDU to ManoMano
Location: ManoMano back office → Compliance settings.
Recovery time after upload: 48-72 hours after IDU upload.
Common upload mistakes: pasting the IDU in the wrong stream field (e.g., a Batteries IDU pasted in another stream's row), legal name mismatch between SYDEREP and ManoMano seller record (string comparison is character-for-character on stricter platforms), or uploading before SYDEREP publication completes.
Cost of portable and industrial batteries EPR for ManoMano sellers
- Representative fee (us): €490 one-time setup + €249/month — totals €2,988/year for the portable and industrial batteries stream excluding VAT. See our published pricing.
- Eco-organism membership (Corepile): typically €80-€450/year. Paid directly by you to the eco-organism; no markup from us.
- Eco-contribution: €0.30-€2.00/kg depending on chemistry (Li-ion higher). Scales with your declared tonnage in the annual declaration filed by 28 February.
ManoMano does not charge a separate EPR fee on top of registration — they only verify compliance. For sellers without a valid IDU, unregistered sellers face listing deactivation rather than alternative billing.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need French portable and industrial batteries EPR if I only sell on ManoMano?
Yes. The producer obligation under Article L. 541-10 II of the Code de l'environnement triggers on placing products on the French market, regardless of channel. ManoMano performs marketplace verification against the public ADEME SYDEREP register. No valid IDU on the portable and industrial batteries stream means listing deactivation.

Where do I upload my portable and industrial batteries IDU on ManoMano?
ManoMano back office → Compliance settings.

What does portable and industrial batteries EPR cost on ManoMano?
Three layers: (1) representative fee — our flat published rate is €490 setup + €249/month per stream; (2) eco-organism membership with Corepile, Screlec — typically €80-€450/year; (3) eco-contribution — €0.30-€2.00/kg depending on chemistry (Li-ion higher). The marketplace itself does not charge for compliance — ManoMano only verifies your registration status.
Can I register only for portable and industrial batteries, or do I need to register for other streams too?
Depends on your catalog. A pure portable and industrial batteries producer registers only that stream. Most non-EU consumer brands trigger multiple streams — e.g., a Bluetooth speaker triggers packaging + WEEE + batteries. Use our scope-check tool at /tools/scope-check for a 90-second verdict.
