All EPR obligations — tracked from one account

Extended producer responsibility works differently in every country — Germany’s rules don’t match France’s, and the UK runs its own system entirely since Brexit. None of them share deadlines or data formats. Add batteries, textiles, or electronics to the mix and you’re dealing with global EPR obligations most internal teams weren’t built to handle across multiple jurisdictions at once.

That’s the problem L’EPR solves. We take over every registration you already hold, plug the gaps you don’t know about yet, and keep everything moving from one platform — one calendar, one contact, one source of truth for your whole global footprint.

Complete international compliance services with L'EPR

  • Full takeover of EPR registrations you already hold — packaging, WEEE, batteries, textiles, and beyond — across every country
  • Gap audit: we find markets and categories where you’re exposed and fix them before they become penalties
  • New country registrations handled at the same time as existing ones — no separate queue, no added delays
  • Packaging data management for global packaging compliance — your product data collected, checked, and submitted to each authority in the format they actually want
  • Authorized representative cover for importers and businesses without a local entity in the countries they sell to
  • Automated deadline calendar — every reporting date, fee payment, and renewal tracked across all markets, with alerts before anything falls due
  • One account manager who knows your full compliance picture, not just one country

EPR consolidation process with Lappa

1
Start an L'EPR account A short consultation to map what you already have — existing EPR numbers, which countries, which categories — and what still needs doing.
2
Audit, gap analysis, and migration We go through every registration you hold, find the gaps, and bring everything into our platform. Nothing gets left behind or duplicated.
3
Register in every jurisdiction that needs it New registrations run alongside existing ones — no separate process, no delays. Documents, authority contacts, language requirements: we handle all of it.
4
Ongoing compliance coordination Reporting, fees, renewals, regulatory changes — from here on it runs through L'EPR. Your team doesn't need to track it.

Every EPR category — not just global packaging compliance

Global EPR compliance used to mean packaging rules. Global packaging compliance remains the largest stream for most businesses — but extended producer responsibility now covers electronics, batteries, clothing, furniture, and more. Managing international compliance across all these categories through separate providers means your team becomes the only thread holding everything together. Lappa handles every stream through the same programme, so that thread doesn’t need to exist.

International trade solution — global EPR coverage

We cover all EU member states — Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, the Netherlands, and the rest — plus the UK on its own post-Brexit rules, several US states with active EPR obligations, Canada’s province-level programmes, and Australia. International compliance at this scale requires an international trade solution that treats all markets as one programme — not a separate provider for each one.

No more matching your sales calendar to a patchwork of local providers. Your packaging data management, cross border reporting, and compliance coordination all go through the same system — consistent timelines, one person responsible for the whole picture.

What our customers say about global EPR

Anna V.

Anna V.

Head of Compliance, Consumer Electronics Manufacturer

Before Lappa, EPR in eight countries meant eight separate relationships and eight different reporting systems. We had three people spending half their time just keeping up. Now one dashboard covers the lot — and we haven’t missed a deadline in over a year.

Marco S.

Marco S.

Operations Director, International Fashion Group

We sell both packaged goods and clothing, so packaging and textiles EPR hit us at the same time across four countries. No single local firm could handle that. Lappa treated it as one programme rather than four separate jobs.

Linda K.

Linda K.

Global Tax Manager, E-commerce Retailer

We import into Europe with no EU entities. Getting authorized representatives sorted in each country was a blocker for expansion. Lappa took care of the representatives, the registrations, and the reporting — twelve countries, one contract.

Frequently asked questions about EPR

What is EPR consolidation and which businesses need it

EPR consolidation is when you move all your extended producer responsibility registrations — across countries and product categories — into one managed service rather than running each one separately. Businesses with international compliance obligations in more than one jurisdiction typically hit a point where the coordination overhead costs more than the compliance itself: missed deadlines, conflicting advice from local providers, no single view of where you actually stand. That’s the signal it’s time to consolidate.

Can Lappa take over EPR registrations I already hold in other countries

Yes, and it’s the starting point for most clients. We audit every registration number you hold, check which PRO memberships and reporting cycles are attached, then transfer management into L’EPR — formally notifying authorities where needed. Where you’re already registered and compliant, we step in at the current point in the compliance cycle. Where there are gaps — a missed market, an overlooked category, global packaging compliance that was never completed — we close them in the same onboarding, with ongoing compliance coordination active from day one.

Which extended producer responsibility product categories does Lappa cover

All the main ones: packaging across every material type, WEEE, batteries under the EU Battery Regulation, textiles and footwear (France, Italy, and others), furniture, vehicles and tyres, and other emerging streams. If your products fall into more than one category — packaged electronics triggers both packaging and WEEE obligations in most countries, often with different PROs and different fee structures — we manage every stream through the same programme rather than treating each one as a separate job.

How does cross border reporting work when every country wants different data

Every national authority has its own format, portal, and language — one of the more awkward parts of global EPR in practice. We hold one unified data model for your products and volumes, then reformat and submit to each jurisdiction exactly as required. Your team puts data into L’EPR once — through ERP integrations, your e-commerce platform, or a manual upload — and we handle the translation for every market. Germany, France, Spain, UK: same source data, correctly filed in each country’s format without your team touching it separately.

We sell across Europe but have no local entities there. Can you still manage our EPR

Yes. Most EU and UK extended producer responsibility frameworks require either a local entity or an authorized representative who takes on legal responsibility for international compliance in that country on your behalf. Lappa provides that representative service as part of the consolidated programme — acting as your legal EPR contact with national authorities and PROs in every market where you have no physical presence. This is the most practical international trade solution for non-EU importers selling into Europe under PPWR, and for any brand that puts its name on a product — which in most jurisdictions makes it the producer of record regardless of where it’s incorporated.
