Packaging: what France’s AGEC law actually requires in 2026
Triman, sorting information, packaging EPR, the phased ban on single-use plastic — what already applies, what remains unclear, and the labelling mistakes that come up most often.
EUDR: the application timeline, and what has changed since 2023
30 December 2026, and 30 June 2027 under conditions. The EUDR has been postponed twice — and the second postponement also lightened the obligations: downstream operators no longer file a statement.
EUDR: filling in your due diligence statement (DDS), step by step
The plot GPS coordinates that pass, those that fail, how to structure a statement for several suppliers, and what the information system rejects most often — a step-by-step guide to the EUDR DDS.
EUDR for an SME outside the EU: what an exporter must supply to its European customer
You are not subject to the EUDR as such, but your European customer is — and without what you supply, it cannot file its statement. What a European buyer actually asks for, and how to respond without an expensive system.
EUDR: what a company risks in the event of non-compliance
Fines, confiscation, exclusion from public procurement, withdrawal from the market: the penalties provided for by the EUDR, who applies them in France, and how an inspection is triggered in practice.
Sentinel-2 and satellite monitoring: how the EU checks an EUDR statement
The European Copernicus programme makes it possible to cross-check an EUDR statement against satellite images of the declared plot. How this check works, its real resolution, and what an operator can check for itself beforehand.
E-invoicing in France, 2026: timetable, formats, preparation
What “electronic invoice” actually means, who is affected and when, what you need in place before the deadline — the French reform explained without jargon, with a preparation checklist.
SIRET, SIREN, holding number: a French producer’s identifiers, and what each one is for
Four numbers, four different uses, and frequent confusion between them. What identifies the business, what identifies the establishment, what identifies the farm holding for the CAP and, for a livestock farm, with the veterinary services — and where to find each one.
Integrating your till or ERP with a traceability tool: the integration pitfalls
Two systems that do not speak the same identifier language, a synchronisation that fails silently, double entry that persists despite the integration — the most frequent pitfalls, and how to avoid them before you sign.
Organic, HVE, Label Rouge: French certifications explained and compared
Three different logics behind three common logos — the absence of synthetic inputs, overall environmental performance, superior quality. What each one really guarantees, and what none of the three covers.
Migrating from paper traceability to a digital tool: the method
Don’t switch everything over at once, keep paper as a safety net during the transition, and know where to start so you don’t burn out in the first month. The method for digitising traceability without a break.
Stacking labels: the real cost and return on investment for a producer
Each additional certification has a direct cost and an ongoing management cost, not just an image benefit. How to assess whether a new label brings in more than it costs, before committing.
