Towards eco-

modulation

Eco-modulation adjusts a marketer’s f inancial

contribution according to the environmental

performance criteria of its products. In 2024, “EU

eco-label” certif ied tonnages rose slightly whereas

those for hazardous product tonnages increased

due to stricter regulations. Two years after having

been implemented, its impact still remains dif f icult

to measure as suf f icient long-term data is still not

available. However, a bioaccumulation and biodeg-

radability study on oils, completed by CYCLEVIA in

2024, will serve to introduce two new eco-modulation

criteria in 2026: a bonus of 30% for lubricants that

are “inherently biodegradable” and one of 80% for

those that are “easily biodegradable”. The goal here

is to provide the industry with an incentive to foster

more virtuous products thanks to a bonus system.

A dedicated webinar will be held by CYCLEVIA in 2025

to assist marketers with these changes.
