About this grant
This ADEME grant supports investments in equipment for reuse, reemployment and repair (RRR) activities for products and materials, excluding packaging. It targets organisations developing a second-life activity for objects and materials, covering preservative collection, traceability and refurbishment. The aid is intended to finance the equipment needed for these activities. The programme addresses the goal of extending product lifespans and reducing resource consumption and waste. The page notes that more than one million tonnes of products are reemployed or reused each year, and that the anti-waste and circular economy law encourages the development of these activities, including consumer information on repairability and suitability for reuse. Funded activities are investments in dedicated reuse, reemployment and refurbishment equipment. The aid rate can reach a maximum of 60% of eligible expenditure. Applicants are directed to an expenditure categorisation guide and a submission guide, and must file through the AGIR platform, which requires an account. The aid is open from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2026 and is described as currently in progress.
