What we comment on

• French EPR enforcement against foreign sellers
  Amazon France, Cdiscount and ManoMano deactivate non-compliant non-EU listings on a recurring quarterly basis. Concrete number of suspensions, recovery paths, and how the post-2023 Conseil d’État ruling reshaped the representative regime.
• PPWR Article 45, what changes 12 August 2026
  EU Regulation 2025/40 makes the authorised representative obligation EU-wide for packaging EPR. We can comment on cross-border compliance footprint multiplication, per-Member-State costs, and the practical timeline.

  Law n° 2026-602 of 8 July 2026 created Article L. 541-10-9-1 of the Code de l’environnement, answering the Conseil d’État’s EcoDDS ruling of 10 November 2023 (case 449213). Why this changes how producers should structure their representative contracts. Plain-English legal commentary available.
• The 19 French EPR streams, operational reality
  Field-level commentary on Citeo, Refashion, Ecosystem (which absorbed Corepile in 2025 for portable batteries), Ecomaison, Valobat and the other accredited eco-organisms. How non-EU brands navigate stream stacking, eco-modulation, and annual declarations.
