Palm leaf plates france — import FAQ for wholesale buyers
Quelles certifications et réglementations s'appliquent à la vaisselle en feuille de palme importée en France?
Cadre obligatoire : Loi AGEC, Règlement UE 1935/2004 (réglementation-cadre UE sur les matériaux au contact des denrées alimentaires) et inscription Citeo (responsabilité élargie du producteur). Recommandé et couvert par Ecodyne : ISO 9001:2015 (management qualité), ISO 14001:2015 (management environnemental) et audit BSCI (conformité sociale). EN 13432 — certification en cours. Les rapports d'essais complets et les preuves d'audit sont transmis directement aux acheteurs grossistes qualifiés sur demande. La vaisselle en feuille de palme reste hors du périmètre des restrictions plastiques de la Loi AGEC car il s'agit d'une matière végétale naturelle non transformée chimiquement.
Which certifications and regulations apply to palm leaf tableware sold in France?
Mandatory framework: Loi AGEC, EU Regulation 1935/2004 and Citeo EPR registration. Recommended on top: ISO 9001:2015 (quality), ISO 14001:2015 (environmental), BSCI (social compliance). EN 13432 — certification in progress. Palm leaf is outside the AGEC plastic-restriction scope as it is unprocessed plant material.
What is the shipping time from India to France?
Container loading at Mangalore Port takes 10 days from confirmed order. Sea transit from Mangalore to France is approximately 18–24 days, with discharge at Le Havre, Marseille or Fos-sur-Mer. Total order-to-arrival window is 28–34 days.
What is the minimum order quantity for palm leaf tableware imported to France?
Minimum order is one 40-foot high-cube container (approximately 28 CBM, or roughly 80,000 plates depending on SKU mix). Multi-SKU containers supported. Pricing FOB Mangalore.
Has Loi AGEC restricted PLA tableware in France?
Yes. Under Loi AGEC and subsequent application decrees, PLA single-use tableware is treated as restricted plastic — losing the earlier 'compostable plastic' exemption. Palm leaf tableware is unprocessed plant material and remains outside the plastic-restriction scope. This is one reason French buyers have accelerated their move from PLA to palm leaf since 2022.
Does Ecodyne handle Citeo EPR registration for French imports?
EPR registration with Citeo is the French importer's obligation, not the manufacturer's. Ecodyne supplies the packaging technical documentation — material composition, weight, recyclability category — that French importers need to file their Citeo declaration.
Is documentation available in French?
Quote documents, commercial invoices and shipping documents are issued in English by default. Product labelling on private-label and white-label orders is bilingual French/English on request, at no additional cost above the standard private-label setup fee.
Which French ports does Ecodyne ship to?
Standard discharge ports for Ecodyne shipments to France: Le Havre, Marseille and Fos-sur-Mer. Transit from Mangalore Port India is typically 18–24 days. Inland delivery onward from the port is the importer's arrangement; Ecodyne ships to first port of discharge under FOB.
