The circular economy is an economic model that minimizes waste by making more efficient use of resources. Unlike the linear economy, which follows the pattern of produce, use, and dispose, the circular economy is based on three principles:
- Reduce: minimizing the use of resources and the generation of waste.
- Reuse: Giving a second life to products and materials.
- Recycle: Transforming waste into new resources.
Due to current laws in France and Germany, to sell electronic products in both countries, it is necessary to comply with the extended producer responsibility law (EPR). This law requires sellers to take responsibility for the lifecycle of their products, including the recycling of packaging materials.
To comply with this regulation, sellers must:
For France:
- Register with a producer responsibility organization.
- Obtain a unique identification number (UIN).
- Label products with the Triman logo.
For Germany:
- Register with a producer responsibility organization: This includes registering with the LUCID system for packaging, managed by the Central Packaging Registry Agency (Zentrale Stelle Verpackungsregister).
- Obtain a LUCID registration number: This number is necessary to demonstrate compliance with packaging recycling and waste management regulations.
- Comply with the Circular Economy Act (Kreislaufwirtschaftsgesetz - KrWG): Ensure that products and packaging are recyclable and that waste is properly managed.
- Proper labeling: Although there is no specific logo like the Triman in France, it is recommended to use the Green Dot to indicate that the manufacturer has contributed to the recycling system.
To sell in France and Germany, you only need to upload the necessary product identifier within the "Circular Economy" tab in your account settings.
