Frequently asked questions

Which eco-organisations run professional packaging (EPRO)?

Three approved eco-organisations: Citeo Pro, Léko Pro and Twiice. The 2026 professional packaging scales were withdrawn when contributions moved to 1 January 2027. Citeo Pro (5 October 2026) and Léko Pro (October 2026) have published their 2027 scales, which may still change. Twiice had not published its 2027 scale on 12 October 2026.

What are the 2027 EPRO rates per tonne?

Léko Pro 2027: plastics €259.00, cardboard €34.65, wood €8.07, other materials (glass, aluminium, steel...) €5.05 per tonne. Citeo Pro 2027: plastic €281.84, paper-cardboard €35.47, wood and cork €9.00, steel €8.90, aluminium and other materials (glass, ceramic...) €8.00 per tonne. Amounts excl. VAT, before eco-modulation.

What does a small producer pay in 2027?

A flat fee: €220 excl. VAT a year at Léko Pro below 4 tonnes, €240 at Citeo Pro at 4 tonnes or less. Above those thresholds the per-tonne scale applies, with a minimum billing of €220 (Léko Pro) and €240 (Citeo Pro).

Which scale costs less?

At the standard rates, Léko Pro is lower on every material and its flat fee is lower too (our reading of the two published scales). Example: 10 t of plastic costs €2,590.00 at Léko Pro and €2,818.40 at Citeo Pro (10 × rate per tonne). One exception: for dangerous-product packaging, Léko Pro charges €82.69/t on every non-plastic material, Citeo Pro €82.80/t on steel only, so non-plastic, non-steel dangerous-product packaging costs less at Citeo Pro. And at exactly 4 tonnes, Citeo Pro's flat fee still applies while Léko Pro's per-tonne scale already does.

When do professional packaging contributions start?

On 1 January 2027. The stream was scheduled to start on 1 July 2026, was postponed sine die on 26 June 2026, then set for 1 January 2027 by the ministry press release of 28 July 2026. 2027 placements are declared from January 2028.

What counts as professional packaging?

Packaging of products used only by professionals. A package also sold to households stays household packaging, even when a business buys it.

Where are the household packaging rates?

The 2027 household packaging rates of Citeo (guide updated 8 October 2026) and Léko (version of 8 October 2026) are on our 2027 rates page at /baremes-rep-2027, and the household packaging line of the eco-contribution simulator uses them in 2027 mode.
