How many new EPR registrations does France get?
ADEME publishes the register with no dates. We compare copies of it, so you can see what is new.
The figure
9,561 new IDUs for companies registered outside France appeared in ADEME's register between 16 September 2026 and 6 November 2026, about 187 a day. 3,770 left it over the same period. 
ADEME
The register now holds 309,945 IDUs, 212,202 of them for companies registered outside France. ADEME updates its file about daily. We compare it with our last copy each week. ADEME

Companies in the register
Company counts, including those registered in France. This is a net change: companies that left are already taken off.
| Date | Companies with an IDU | Registered outside France | Registered in France |

| 4 October 2026 | 250,793 | 170,018 | 80,775 |

Companies registered in France
Our older copies hold foreign companies only, so we can count new IDUs for French companies from our 6 November 2026 copy onwards. The first figure comes with the next comparison. Until then, the company table above gives the net change.
How we count
- We download ADEME's complete file and check it against the checksum ADEME publishes. ADEME
- A new IDU is one in this file and not in our previous copy. A left IDU is the reverse. ADEME
- One company holds one IDU per stream, so IDUs are not companies. ADEME
- Outside France means the register's country field is not FR.
- Nothing is estimated: each figure is a count of two files.
What this cannot tell you
- The registration date. ADEME publishes none, so an IDU counts in the period we first saw it. Sources (2)ADEMEADEME — all about the unique identifier (IDU)ADEMEADEME — which producers the EPR schemes cover
- Why an IDU left. It could be a closed membership, a merger or a correction. We do not know. ADEME
- Why registrations rose or fell. The law of July 2026 may play a part, but these counts do not show cause.
- Who is compliant. A company with no IDU may have no duty, or may sell only through a marketplace paying in its place. ADEME
- Professional packaging. The file of 4 October 2026 listed 1,063 EPRO IDUs. The file of 6 November 2026 lists none, although ADEME's description still names the stream. We treat that as a change to the file, not as companies leaving, and it explains most of the “left” figure in the latest period. Sources (2)ADEMEADEME — professional packaging (EPRO) scheme pageADEMEADEME — which producers the EPR schemes cover
- Three stream codes changed in the same period (JOUET to JJ, VEHICULE to VHCL, TABAC to TBC). We keep them joined up.
