Ecobalyse for a first pilot: the tool is free, official and its formulas are public. Start with your flagship product to see what the score reveals, then expand.

Most work involves supplier mapping (cotton origin, dyeing energy, transport), taking 3 to 6 months and concentrating 80% of the effort. For an SME, Bpifrance's Diag Éco-conception can fund 60 to 70% of this initial process, with €5,400 to €7,200 excl. VAT payable.
