Since 2020, Clear Fashion has been actively involved in setting up this system, alongside the Ministry of Ecological Transition.

✔ Recommended by the Citizens’ Convention

✔ Included in the Climate and Resilience Law

✔ 6 years of work, backed by a rigorous public methodology

And now, the decree has been approved by Europe.

It’s a quantified estimate of a product’s environmental impact (water, carbon, biodiversity, etc.).

> The higher the score, the greater the impact.

> Soon, you’ll be able to compare a t-shirt to... a car trip or a chocolate bar.

Starting in 2026, any third party — NGOs, media outlets, platforms — will be allowed to calculate and publish the environmental impact scores of your products, even without your consent. This is one of the specific features of the French decree: default scores (often unfavorable) will be made public to accelerate the industry's transition.

⚠️ This means organizations like UFC-Que Choisir, 60 Millions de Consommateurs, or Open Product Facts could publish scores for your garments — using publicly available data or default assumptions.

👉 Take the lead : by publishing your own scores, you control the data used, shape the message, and highlight your sustainability efforts.

Passed in its first reading by the French Senate on June 4, 2025, the anti-fast fashion law marks a historic turning point.

This legislative framework aims to regulate production volumes, reward responsible brands, and penalize the most polluting practices.

Producer Responsibility (EPR) contributions will now be adjusted through bonuses and penalties based on certain environmental labeling criteria — particularly those related to product durability, such as traceability, repairability, and product range diversity. Environmental labeling is becoming a key tool to anticipate and guide the industry's transformation !
