What is the Reuse Economy Expo? 

The Reuse Economy Expo is the leading international trade fair for all stakeholders involved in the reuse economy. Each year, it brings together professionals from across Europe around a common goal: to make reuse a viable, replicable, and sustainable economic driver.

Born of the Bulk and Reuse FairThis event has progressively expanded its scope to include all forms of industrial circularity: reuse, repair, refurbishment, repurposing, and remanufacturing. In 2025, the edition held at the Parc Floral de Paris marked a turning point, bringing together more than 2,000 professionals under the Reuse Economy Expo banner.

The 2026 edition confirms and amplifies this trajectory. It will be held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, one of the largest professional venues in France. This change of venue reflects the growing importance of the event and the increasing urgency of... issues of reuse and the need to structure a real circular economy Europe-wide

The Bulk Goods Fair was born out of a very concrete need: to support the development of bulk food and reusable container solutions, in a context where regulations (AGEC lawEuropean directives, Extended Producer Responsibility, etc.) are evolving rapidly.

What’s new at the 2025 Bulk Show?

The 8th edition of the Reuse Fair, now called the Reuse Economy Expo, will be held on 19 and 20 May 2026 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. This year, the theme for the 2026 edition is: "How can we accelerate reuse in all sectors?" 

The challenge is no longer to demonstrate the value of reuse, but to remove the concrete obstacles hindering its large-scale implementation. Resource scarcity, rising energy costs, new regulations, and growing consumer expectations: all sectors face the same challenges. The 2026 edition offers concrete solutions.

In parallel, the organization of the trade fair was redesigned around six exhibition sectors, each bringing together technical, industrial, institutional and operational stakeholders: 

  • Electrical Equipment and Batteries
  • packaging
  • Furniture and Objects
  • Textiles
  • Construction and Building
  • Consulting and support

The Packaging section is particularly strategic for players in the agri-food, logistics and mass distribution sectors, who must anticipate the obligations of PPWR regulations from 2026. It is in this space thatETERNITY Systems will have its stand.

The 2026 edition introduces a Village entirely dedicated to the Digital Product Passport (DPP), the digital product passport. This traceability tool, which is being progressively made mandatory by European regulations, is a fundamental lever for reuse. It allows for the documentation of a package's life cycle, guarantees its regulatory compliance, and optimizes the logistical flows of collection and washing.

The Reuse Economy Expo 2026 was designed around 6 key reuse sectors

For sustainable logistics, ETERNITY Systems welcomes Bretagne Supply Chain to Trémorel

In a world in search of viable solutions, sustainable and circular logistics is becoming a pillar of transformation. On June 19, ETERNITY had the pleasure of opening the doors of its center washing, repair and logistics of reusable packaging in Trémorel (22), during a visit organized by Brittany Supply Chain.

Highlight concrete solutions for reuse and sustainable logistics.

This meeting was part of Bretagne Supply Chain's "packaging" program, dedicated to exploring sustainable solutions for logistics flows. The objective? Accelerating the transition to a circular economy by sharing feedback, best practices and innovative solutions.

At ETERNITY, we believe that reuse is not an option, but a necessity. This is why we have been investing for over 15 years in robust infrastructure, high-performance washing technologies and a logistics organization capable of supporting manufacturers and distributors towards a large-scale reusable packaging model.

An immersion into the heart of our sustainable washing, repair and logistics center

During this visit, participants were able to discover:

  • Our washing processes high performance meeting the strictest health requirements;

  • Our repair workshops to extend the life of bins, pallets, crates and other reusable plastic packaging;

  • Our logistical approach tailor-made, adapted to the flows, constraints and volume of each client.

All this in a transparent, open and conducive environment for discussion — under the Breton sun, of course 🌞.

The major issues discussed during this day

This morning provided an opportunity to address strategic questions that many industrial players and distributors are asking:

Should you own the packaging or use a packaging pooler?
Outsource washing or insource? What are the logistical and economic impacts?
What safety standards are needed to ensure health compliance?
Which logistics model should be adopted depending on the nature of its flows?

Essential questions for any organization considering the transition to a more responsible, more circular, and more resilient supply chain.

Towards sustainable and territorial logistics in Brittany

As a committed player in circular logistics, ETERNITY acts to democratize the reuse of packaging across all territories. In Brittany as elsewhere, we are working alongside our partners to:

  • Reduce waste at source;

  • Maximize the reuse of existing resources;

  • Offer suitable, flexible and shared logistics services.

Thanks to Bretagne Supply Chain and all participants

Many thanks to the teams of Brittany Supply Chain for this wonderful initiative, and to all the professionals present for the richness of the discussions. This day proved it once again: sustainable and circular logistics are built collectively — with manufacturers, logisticians, territories and sectors.

At ETERNITY Systems, the commitment to the ecological transition takes on a new dimension. Indeed, the very first 100% electric truck has officially hit the road from the Trémorel site. This first outing marks a crucial step in the company's desire to actively contribute to protecting the environment.

This change is part of an effort to integrate more sustainable solutions into all of the company's operations. While the reuse of packaging has already demonstrated the benefits of responsible resource management, adopting an electric truck is a major step towards low-impact logistics practices.

These are designed not only to meet growing environmental requirements, but also to strengthen the company's competitiveness in a sector where sustainable innovation is becoming a strategic asset.

The desire to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through a fleet of 100% electric vehicles meets the growing demand for more environmentally friendly transport solutions. By focusing on this transition, ETERNITY Systems sets an example of an industry that is looking to the future and aware of its role in preserving the planet.

100% electric truck: The future of sustainable transport at ETERNITY Systems

Beyond this first initiative, other projects aimed at transforming the company's operations are under development. These actions reinforce the idea that ecological transformation is a global process, which affects all aspects of the value chain.

The commitment ofETERNITY Systems for a sustainable future is clear: combining innovation, performance and respect for the environment. This first journey in a 100% electric truck symbolizes the beginning of a long series of concrete measures that will be put in place to limit the company's environmental impact while ensuring the sustainability of its operations.

With its first 100% electric truck journey, ETERNITY Systems is reaching a decisive milestone in its commitment to the ecological transition. This turning point is part of a broader approach of commitment to the planet, where every step counts to limit the environmental impact.

ETERNITY Systems invests in the Cleaning of Glass Beer Bottles for Quebec Microbreweries

A new chapter for reuse in the brewing industry hailed by the Association of Microbrasseries of Quebec.

ETERNITY Systems, a major player in packaging reuse, announces its expansion in Canada with a particular emphasis on microbreweries in Quebec.

Already present since 2017 with 2 sites in Longueuil and Guelph for the MT Systems activity dedicated to secondary and tertiary packaging, such as crates and pallets, for the agri-food industry, the French company ETERNITY Systems takes over from the recently declared bankrupt company “Le maître packaging durable” to now offer glass beer bottle washing services.

ETERNITY Systems, with nearly 30 years of experience in reusing containers, has already acquired machines from the bankrupt company, anticipating an initial volume of around one million bottles per year, with a planned higher capacity.

“We are in contact with the microbreweries. Our goal is to resume existing operations and continue to provide reliable and sustainable services,” explains Marc Antoine Vézina, director of the Longueuil plant for ETERNITY Systems.

The Association of MicroBrasseries of Quebec (AMBQ) welcomes this collaboration.

“This is good news for us, a new collaboration is being established with ETERNITY Systems, a company recognized worldwide for its expertise in reuse,” says Marie-Eve Myrand, the association’s general director.

For microbreweries, this represents a new partner in bottle cleaning, reducing costs associated with the accumulation of empty glass containers and ensuring a more efficient and economical transition. Although the trend towards cans has increased (the number of beers sold in bottles represents around 2% of production), some microbrewers, with the support ofETERNITY Systems, continue to use glass bottles.

Marie-Eve Myrand emphasizes: “Our wish is to secure the washing and supply of returnable washed bottles and with ETERNITY Systems, this is becoming a promising reality.”

The Association des microbrasseries du Québec hopes that the government will perpetuate re-employment offers with companies like ETERNITY Systems, thus underlining the commitment to the environment.
