How it works

Three steps to a French-compliant pack

1

Send your packaging details

Component list, materials and current artwork — photos or print files both work.

2

We map the sorting streams

Each component assigned its stream, and the Triman plus Info-Tri block laid out.

3

Artwork guidance

You receive the marking specification and placement guidance for your designer.

France asks for something no other member state does

Under the AGEC lawloi anti-gaspillage pour une économie circulaire — and Article R.541-12-17 of the French Environmental Code, products and packaging placed on the French market must carry the Triman logo together with Info-Tri sorting instructions. The Info-Tri element tells the consumer, component by component, which waste stream each part of your packaging belongs in.

This is a packaging obligation, not a cosmetics one, which is exactly why cosmetic brands miss it. A perfectly compliant EU cosmetic label can still be rejected by a French retailer for the absence of a sorting mark.

What this service produces

  • Component breakdown — bottle, cap, pump, carton, leaflet, shrink film: each identified and assigned its sorting stream.
  • Correct layout — the Triman logo and Info-Tri block laid out to the prescribed form for your packaging format.
  • Wording — the French sorting instructions per component, phrased as required.
  • Placement & size — where it must sit and the minimum dimensions at which it stays legally valid.
  • Small-packaging route — where your packaging is genuinely too small, the dematerialised option and how to use it properly.

What it is not

This service prepares your marking. It is separate from your extended producer responsibility registration and the unique identifier you receive from an eco-organisme such as CITEO. If you are not yet registered, tell us and we will point you to the right route — but registration is not included here.

Why it is worth getting right

  • Retailer and marketplace gatekeeping — French retailers and platforms check for the sorting mark as a listing condition. This is usually how brands find out they are missing it.
  • Reprint avoidance — the marking has to be designed into artwork. Adding it after a print run means another print run.
  • Component-level accuracy — a generic Triman logo with no Info-Tri block, or one that lumps all components together, does not satisfy the requirement.
  • One market, handled properly — if France matters to you, this is a small, bounded piece of work with a clear deliverable.
Good to know. The AGEC marking rules have been phased in with sell-through periods for existing stock. If you have packaging already printed, tell us the print date and we will tell you where you stand.
Yes. The obligation attaches to placing the product on the French market, including distance selling. Marketplaces increasingly require evidence of it before allowing a listing.
No. Since the AGEC reform, the Triman logo has to be accompanied by Info-Tri sorting instructions that tell the consumer what to do with each packaging component. The logo on its own is not compliant.
There is a dematerialised route for packaging too small to carry the full marking, with conditions attached. We assess whether you genuinely qualify and, if so, how to apply it correctly.
No. Extended producer responsibility registration with an eco-organisme is a separate obligation with its own fees. This service prepares your marking. We will flag it if you appear not to be registered.
Not in this form. Triman and Info-Tri are specifically French. Other member states have their own EPR obligations, but none require this particular on-pack sorting mark.
The Info-Tri wording is in French, as required. If you need the rest of your label reviewed for other markets, a Cosmetic Label Review covers that separately.
