# Pouches packaging EPR France: what a stand-up pouch costs per 1,000 packs, 2026

Last verified: November 4, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/pouch/france

<a id="answer"></a>

In France, 1,000 stand-up pouches of the Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) size (12 g) carry an estimated packaging fee of €9.24 to €10.08 on the 2026 schedule. The range comes from the published rates that fit each part of the pack. Instica estimates it; you confirm the weights, then sign and submit.

## What this page estimates for a stand-up pouch in France

The stand-up pouch on this page is a flexible stand-up pouch of layered plastic film that holds food, supplements, pet treats or powders. It has one component, each matched to the published rates of the 2026 schedule of Citeo household packaging contribution (emballages ménagers) for France; weight times rate gives a fee per 1,000 packs in EUR. The figures are estimates built on starting weights.

## What is in a stand-up pouch

The pouch is one flexible plastic component. A zip, spout or valve is part of the same weighed unit in the starting estimate.

Starting weights, an Instica estimate for a typical pack and not a measured weight: pouch (plastic film, 12 g).

## Worked example: 1,000 stand-up pouches in France

One stand-up pouch of the Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) size weighs 12 g in total. For each component the table gives its weight, the matched published rates, and the fee for 1,000 packs.

<a id="worked-example-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 stand-up pouches in France, in EUR**

| Component | Weight each | Matched published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | ---: | --- | ---: | ---: |
| Pouch | 12 g | Flexible PE packaging to Flexible PP packaging | €9.24 to €10.08 | €0.0092 to €0.0101 |

<a id="calc-total"></a>France: 1,000 stand-up pouches of the Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) size are estimated at €9.24 to €10.08 in packaging fees.

Added together, the estimate for 1,000 packs is €9.24 to €10.08.

Divide by 1,000 for a single pack: about €0.0092 to €0.0101.

## What the fee tool returns for 1,000 stand-up pouches in France

Entered into the public fee tool for France (2026 schedule, effective January 1, 2026), 1,000 stand-up pouches give the figures below. The tool is the same engine that prices a report, so this page and the tool agree.

<a id="tool-lines"></a>**Fee tool lines for 1,000 packs, France, in EUR**

| Component | Category at the lowest rate | Weight | Fee | Category at the highest rate | Fee |

## How size changes the fee for a stand-up pouch

The weight of a stand-up pouch depends on its size. The table prices each of the 3 sizes with the same matched rates, so the only thing that changes between rows is the weight.

<a id="sizes-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 stand-up pouches by size in France, in EUR**

| Size | Weight each | Fee per 1,000 packs, lowest rates | Fee per 1,000 packs, highest rates | Per pack, lowest | Per pack, highest |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Packet (about 1 to 2 oz) | 4 g | €3.08 | €3.36 | €0.0031 | €0.0034 |
| Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) | 12 g | €9.24 | €10.08 | €0.0092 | €0.0101 |
| Large (about 2 lb) | 25 g | €19.25 | €21.00 | €0.0193 | €0.021 |

Each component of the stand-up pouch priced at every size, at the matched rates for France.

<a id="matrix"></a>**Fee per 1,000 packs by component and size, France, in EUR**

| Component | Packet (about 1 to 2 oz) | Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) | Large (about 2 lb) |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Pouch | 4 g: €3.08 to €3.36 | 12 g: €9.24 to €10.08 | 25 g: €19.25 to €21.00 |

<a id="options"></a>

## What if the stand-up pouch used another material?

Suppose the main component of the stand-up pouch, weighing 12 g, were made of another material. The table prices the same weight in each material class that France publishes a rate for, at the lowest published rate in that class.

<a id="options-table"></a>**Same weight, different material, France, in EUR per 1,000 packs**

| Material | Lowest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate | Highest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 25.81 cents per kilogram | €3.10 | 25.81 cents per kilogram | €3.10 |
| plastic | 77.01 cents per kilogram | €9.24 | 84.01 cents per kilogram | €10.08 |
| glass | 2.01 cents per kilogram | €0.24 | 2.01 cents per kilogram | €0.24 |
| aluminium | 24.34 cents per kilogram | €2.92 | 24.34 cents per kilogram | €2.92 |
| steel | 6.49 cents per kilogram | €0.78 | 6.49 cents per kilogram | €0.78 |

<a id="options-all"></a>**Every matched rate of the other materials at 12 g, France, in EUR**

| Material | Category | Published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | Paper and cardboard | 25.81 cents per kilogram | €3.10 | €0.0031 |
| glass | Glass | 2.01 cents per kilogram | €0.24 | €0.0002 |
| aluminium | Aluminium | 24.34 cents per kilogram | €2.92 | €0.0029 |
| steel | Steel | 6.49 cents per kilogram | €0.78 | €0.0008 |

A fee comparison only: another material changes weight and protection too.

<a id="volume"></a>

## What a larger run of stand-up pouches costs in France

Fees scale with the number of packs, because the schedule charges by mass. The table repeats the worked example for larger runs of the Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) stand-up pouch in France. Nothing else changes between rows: the same weights and the same matched rates apply.

<a id="volume-table"></a>**Fee by run size for the stand-up pouch in France, in EUR**

| Packs | Total weight | Fee at the lowest rates | Fee at the highest rates |
| ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 100 | 1.2 kg | €0.92 | €1.01 |
| 500 | 6 kg | €4.62 | €5.04 |
| 1,000 | 12 kg | €9.24 | €10.08 |
| 5,000 | 60 kg | €46.21 | €50.41 |
| 10,000 | 120 kg | €92.41 | €100.81 |
| 50,000 | 600 kg | €462.06 | €504.06 |
| 100,000 | 1,200 kg | €924.12 | €1,008.12 |
| 500,000 | 6,000 kg | €4,620.60 | €5,040.60 |
| 1,000,000 | 12,000 kg | €9,241.20 | €10,081.20 |

<a id="calc-pack"></a>France: a single stand-up pouch is estimated at €0.0092 to €0.0101 in packaging fees.

<a id="calc-blended"></a>France: across all its components, a stand-up pouch is priced at €0.7701 to €0.8401 per kilogram of packaging.

Taken as a whole, the pack is priced at €0.7701 to €0.8401 per kilogram of packaging, so a heavier pack costs more in proportion to its weight.

Flat fee bands, registration fees and minimum charges sit outside this per-kilogram table.

<a id="schedule"></a>

## The fee schedule behind these figures for France

The rates come from the 2026 schedule of Citeo household packaging contribution (emballages ménagers) for France, effective January 1, 2026. The facts below record where it was published and what else the schedule charges.

<a id="fee-source"></a>France: the 2026 fee schedule of Citeo household packaging contribution (emballages ménagers), effective January 1, 2026, is the source of the per-kilogram rates used on this page.

<a id="eco-modulation"></a>France: the schedule describes its eco-modulation method as “percentage”.

The schedule also lists 9 other fees, which are not part of the per-kilogram estimate on this page.

The schedule describes an eco-modulation of its rates, so the fee a producer pays can be adjusted up or down from the base rates shown here.

<a id="levers"></a>

## Ways to lower the fee on a stand-up pouch

Film thickness sets the weight, so a thinner structure that still protects the product is the most direct way to lower a mass-based fee.

Single-material films are easier to sort for recycling, and several programmes publish different rates for them than for multilayer laminates.

A pouch that is sold with a paper outer box carries two packaging components, and the box is priced on its own page.

Pouches are light, so the fee per pack is small, but the fee per 1,000 packs adds up for a product sold in volume.

## Questions sellers ask

### <a id="q1"></a>How much is the EPR fee for a stand-up pouch in France?

For 1,000 stand-up pouches of the Medium (about 8 to 12 oz) size, the estimated fee is €9.24 to €10.08 on the 2026 schedule, from the published rates that fit each component.

### <a id="q2"></a>Is this the amount I will pay?

No. It is an estimate for the packaging alone. Registration fees, flat fee bands, eco-modulation and thresholds sit outside the per-kilogram figure. Instica prepares the data; you check, sign and submit it, and Instica never stores regulator login details.
