Triman Logo

In line with the French AGEC Law, URBN is working toward providing more transparent information as well as limiting waste production through promoting reuse, recycling, and donation of its products. To achieve this, vendors will be required to comply with the labelling of goods identifying the Triman logo along with sorting instructions appropriate to the product. This information should be made available on the product, its packaging, or other documents supplied with the product (such as a notice or accompanying instructions).

The Triman logo is a mandatory, unified signage for end-of-life products created from the French Decree No. 2014-15733 to harmonize the separate collection systems within France. This symbol was introduced to provide a more readily understandable symbol for citizens and consumers in France to ensure recyclable products are separated at end of life. On January 1, 2022, new modifications were made and the Triman logo must be accompanied by further sorting instructions (Info-Tri). Since Info-Tri varies for different product groups, it is important that the vendor identifies the sorting instructions applicable to their specific product.

There are 2 elements that must appear and be inseparable: Triman signage & information that details the procedures for sorting or disposing of waste from the product (info-sorting). The accompanying sorting instructions must comply with the requirements identified under the product’s respective recycling system. URBN’s common product categories with accompanying recycling systems can be found below however vendors are responsible for ensuring all applicable products comply with the entirety of the law. The full list of relevant products can be found here. Information on the Triman logo and sorting instructions can be found in article 17 of the AGEC law.
