Trade vs sale: why bartering is more ecological

Trade vs sale: why bartering is more ecological

In a world where overconsumption weighs heavily on our planet, trading emerges as a responsible and sustainable alternative. Discover why exchanging your items is a strong ecological gesture.

The environmental impact of consumption

Every new item we buy generates a carbon footprint: raw material extraction, manufacturing, transportation, packaging. By trading, we extend the lifespan of objects and significantly reduce this footprint.

Circular economy in action

Trading fits perfectly into the circular economy model. Instead of throwing away an object we no longer need, we give it a second life. It's a virtuous circle where nothing is wasted.

🌍 Concrete impact

On average, each trade on Troccy prevents 2.5 kg of waste and saves 10 kg of CO2. Imagine the impact of thousands of trades!

Waste reduction

France produces more than 350 kg of waste per inhabitant each year. Trading significantly reduces this mountain of waste by preventing still-functional objects from ending up in the trash.

An alternative to fast-fashion

The textile industry is one of the most polluting in the world. By trading your clothes rather than buying new ones, you fight against fast-fashion and its disastrous consequences for the environment.

Join the movement

Trading means adopting a more responsible consumption pattern. It also means joining a community of citizens committed to a more sustainable future. Every trade counts!
