What's changing — the three-part pressure
Three distinct obligations, three deadlines. Here's where you stand.
Environmental claims
The DGCCRF is actively policing textile environmental claims — its 2026 campaign makes them a priority (art. L. 132-2 of the Consumer Code). The pressure is here already, before October.
Third-party publication
Anyone — a retailer, an NGO, an app — can compute and publish your products' environmental cost from default values that penalise you. Your own score, once filed on the official portal, prevails (art. D. 541-244).
Display coupling
If you communicate an environmental score, you must display the official environmental cost (art. D. 541-245) — filed on the state portal before any public communication.
