Use Case | AGEC Law: Décret n° 2022-748

Streamline product traceability data for AGEC (Décret n° 2022-748)

TrusTrace helps brands standardize how traceability data is captured, digitized and shared. Traceability of the main material in products is one of the requirements set by the Décret n° 2022-748 under the French Anti-Waste for a Circular Economy Law (AGEC). It comes into force on January 1, 2023.

Get on track with digital traceability for apparel and footwear products

Scale supply chain mapping for AGEC with TrusTrace.

Decree under the French Anti-Waste for a Circular Economy Law (AGEC) (Décret n° 2022-748 du 29 avril 2022 relatif à l’information du consommateur sur les qualités et caractéristiques environnementales des produits générateurs de déchets) is building upon existing regulations to provide consumers with more information at the time of purchase. AGEC requires companies to make weight based declarations of recycled material content and disclose the traceability of main materials by showing countries of origin.

AGEC Requirement	Availability in TrusTrace
Traceability of main material by weight and declare countries of origin	Supplier Data Management Supply Chain Mapping
Recycled Material Content The information must be disclosed in terms of total proportion in weight: “product containing at least X% recycled material”	Material Compliance
Release of Microplastics	Currently not supported in TrusTrace
Recyclability	Currently not supported in TrusTrace
Presence of Harmful Substances	Currently not supported in TrusTrace

The data can be presented to consumers similar to this example:


Name of the Product and commercial reference
Incorporation of recycled materials	This product contains at least 30% recycled materials
Recyclability	Product mostly recyclable
Presence of Harmful Substances	No harmful substances in accordance with REACH (EC 1907/2006)
Traceability (example for textiles)	Weaving = India Dyeing / Printing = India Assembling = France
Release of Microplastics	This product releases Microplastics into the environment during washing
