In 1992, only the glass was recycled in France, or less than 700,000 tonnes. Today, the 4.7 million tonnes of packaging placed on the market to destination households, approximately 60 are recycled, or 2.7 million tonnes. To manage these new flow, logistics tool that has been implemented was based on partnerships to use the skills and existing means. Eco-packaging has not invested in buckets, trays and sorting centres, but concluded contracts to the players who already had and could invest.
The primary collection is today carried out by local communities or farming companies (Sita, Veolia, Onyx, Coved...). It is most often in door to door of the building, but sometimes a voluntary contribution (filed in containers). Collected products then depart to 300 sorting centres that have emerged in 15 years, thanks to the investment of private (to 2/3) groups or local communities. Recoverable packaging waste are then processed into recyclable secondary materials (packages of steel or alu hurry, balls of paper,...), then go to recycling companies. Most of the players in the sector belong to industrial groups or materials channels created ad hoc departments or subsidiaries. Eco-packaging and spent agreements with Usinor steel, with Pechiney now Alcan for aluminum with paper 30, with the Trade Union House of mechanical glassware, plastics processing sector... More recently, he signed with the Federec, which includes the business of recycling of industrial waste, which have opened their ways in household waste.
99 of French packaging are recycled in France and in Europe. A small part of the paper part in Spain and Italy, and pet (plastic bottles from) is transformed into textile Ireland, Germany or Italy. Exports to China and the India are reduced. On average, in France in 2004 - 2005, the cost of collection, sorting and treatment of the 4.7 million tonnes of household packaging was an average of 12 euros per year and per inhabitant (located in range from 6 to 24 euros). It was multiplied by 2.5 in ten years, primarily because of the standards which were added the cost of landfill and incineration.
The costs are not fully supported by local communities. Eco-packaging reverse them averaged 6 euros (actually 2 to 12 euros, according to a scale linked to performance in kg/year/capita) from contributions to industrial. Indeed, the producers of the consumer (agri-food, cosmetics, detergents...) pay a contribution for all marked packagings of a "green point", that they put on the market. They make a contribution of EUR 400 million, redistributed to 35,000 local communities across 1,500 intercommunalités.
A euro from the sale of secondary products to recyclers also returns to the communities. It remains for them to finance an average net cost of EUR 5. Fifteen years ago, this additional funding was provided to 80 by General budgets. It is more than 20 today. On the other hand, 70 now from household garbage tax on built land. Marginally, some municipalities turned to garbage removal fees. These can be sitting on more incentives criteria such as the volume of the tanks or the number of people in families, but the elect fear the electoral impact of these charges. Eco-packaging believes that the French cost of collection is more or less 20 the cost of other European countries, if it brings back the calculation of tonnage, densities of population and comparable modes of collection. "The French habit of fundraising too comfortable and expensive modes." "Collections are often half as frequent in other countries and bins usually better filled," said Bernard Herodin, General Manager of Eco-packaging. Moreover, the density of sorting centres is important in France (1 for 200,000 inhabitants) and most of these units may double, or even triple their capacity. Lot of sorting centres created a decade ago remained too manual to the current possibilities of mechanisation. "We're going to a rationalization and a reduction in the costs of collection," said the charge that "a restructuring of sorting centres is possible to rationalize". This development seems more logical that more contracts with the intercommunalités are most important territories. Five contracts were concluded with whole departments end of 2004. They were twenty-two end 2005.
