AB Green

What AB Green does

AB Green is a French B2B environmental compliance services firm founded in 2021 and headquartered in Lille (SIREN 904089273). The company specializes in managing Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE / DEEE) recycling obligations on behalf of producers subject to France's Extended Producer Responsibility (REP) regulations. Its founder brings 15+ years of prior experience in the DEEE/REP sector from a major industry group, which underpins the firm's regulatory positioning and relationships with French eco-organisms.

The core product is a turnkey recycling management service: AB Green orchestrates the collection and treatment of producers' end-of-life equipment through a curated network of certified treatment facilities located within a 100km radius across France, currently handling more than 50,000 tonnes of equipment annually. The firm operates an asset-light model with 1–10 employees, relying on partner facilities rather than owned infrastructure. Beyond core compliance, the company has built ancillary positioning around a reforestation commitment (2,000 trees) and partnerships with social insertion/re-employment programs, supporting its sustainability narrative.

The business model is B2B and sales-led, monetizing through service fees from producers obligated under REP rules. The firm is founder-owned, with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or publicly known customer logos. Given the fragmented nature of French producer compliance needs and the regulatory complexity of REP, the addressable market is broad but the company remains a small niche player without documented geographic expansion beyond mainland France.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights2 records

Emerging players

• Citeo: French eco-organism for household packaging. Comparable as an adjacent REP scheme where AB Green's compliance methodology could be applied to producer-side obligations.

Broad incumbents

• Paprec Group: Leading French recycler with WEEE and e-waste treatment capabilities. Comparable as a broad incumbent with downstream treatment assets that producers may prefer over intermediary-led flows.
• Veolia Environmental Services (France): Major French waste management operator with WEEE collection and treatment services. Comparable as a broad incumbent that bundles compliance advisory into integrated waste contracts, potentially displacing pure intermediaries.
• Suez Recycling and Recovery (France): Large French waste operator offering WEEE and REP-related services. Comparable as a broad incumbent whose integrated offering competes with AB Green's intermediary value proposition.

Regional players

• Corepile: French eco-organism for industrial and automotive batteries. Comparable as a sibling REP scheme in France with similar producer-contract dynamics that AB Green could extend into.

Direct peers

• European Recycling Platform (ERP) France: Pan-European WEEE PRO (producer responsibility organisation) with French operations. Comparable as a competing compliance pathway that AB Green must position producers against.
• Screlec: French eco-organism for portable batteries and accumulators. Comparable as a REP sector intermediary where AB Green provides producer-side advisory on contractual and administrative compliance.
• Ecosystem (formerly Eco-systèmes): Approved French eco-organism for household WEEE. Directly comparable as the principal eco-organization counterparty that AB Green intermediates between producers and recyclers.
• Recylex: French specialist in WEEE and lead recycling with depollution capabilities. Directly comparable as a France-based player operating in the same WEEE value chain that AB Green advises on.
• PV Cycle France: WEEE take-back scheme for photovoltaic panels operating in France. Comparable as a specialist eco-organization with which AB Green-style producers must interact for REP compliance.
