Biggest published differences

Rates side by side, by material

Each row is one material family in one published scope – scopes are never mixed. Where a scheme prices several tiers of the same family (colour, recyclability, format), the cell shows its range; expand the row to see every underlying sourced line. An empty cell means that scheme publishes no comparable rate there.

“Lowest” marks the scheme that is cheaper on every published tier of that category, at the precision shown. Ties and mixed results get no marker.

What does the PRO choice cost for your mix?

Add the materials you place on the market and a yearly weight for each. Gramta multiplies every scheme's current published rate, so you see the yearly difference in real money – not per-kilogram abstractions.

Minimum and base fees

Minimum, membership and base fees apply on top of (or instead of) per-kilogram rates, and they are comparable across every scheme regardless of tariff structure. Terms differ – some are annual, some one-off – so check each source.

Choosing the PRO is the easy part

The comparison above is one country, one year, per-kilogram rates only. Filing for real means classifying every product's packaging, applying minimums and modulation, and repeating it for every country you sell into – every year.

  • You owe fees in every EU country you ship to, not just one.
  • Every product's packaging has to be weighed and sorted by material.
  • There are extra fixed fees, minimums, and higher rates for hard-to-recycle packaging.
  • And it has to be filed accurately, on time, every single year.

You don't have to do this by hand

France PRO comparison questions

Is Twiice cheaper than Citeo PRO in France?

Yes – on current published rates Twiice is the cheaper choice: it charges less in 1 of 3 directly comparable categories and more in none (as of 22 Aug 2026). The biggest gap is Aluminium (professional, commercial and industrial packaging), where Twiice is 33% cheaper (0.0054 vs Citeo PRO's 0.008 EUR/kg). 2 categories are identical. Minimum fees and packaging scopes still differ, so confirm both against the linked tariffs before deciding.

Can I just register with the cheapest PRO in France?

Usually you can choose, but not on the per-kilogram rate alone. Schemes differ in packaging scopes, minimum and membership fees, eco-modulation tiers and contract terms, and some only accept certain packaging streams. Use the comparison to shortlist, then confirm scope and total cost against the scheme's own tariff – every rate here links to it.

Where do these comparison figures come from?

Every rate is a published tariff line from the scheme itself, held in Gramta's sourced fee dataset with its effective period and checked date (dataset updated 22 Aug 2026). Nothing is averaged or estimated: identical material families in identical published scopes are placed side by side, and anything not like-for-like is excluded and explained above.
