Lappa Registers
Morgenstern GmbH
for EPR in France and Spain
EPR registration across two product streams — packaging and textiles — for a German bathrobe and home textile brand entering French and Spanish compliance requirements.
With Lappa, Morgenstern GmbH has been able to:
Complete EPR registration in France and Spain for both packaging and textile product categories
Appoint authorized representatives where required for a non-local producer
Establish a reporting structure with accurate weight-based volume data for both product streams
About Morgenstern GmbH
Morgenstern is a German manufacturer and retailer of bathrobes, sauna kilts, towelling products, and home textiles sold under the Morgenstern® brand. The company sells directly to consumers across Europe, placing it under EPR obligations for both the packaging its products ship in and the textile goods themselves.

Two Countries, Two Product Streams, One Registration Process
France and Spain both operate active EPR schemes for packaging, and France has been among the first EU markets to enforce textile EPR under its TLC category. For a brand like Morgenstern — selling fabric goods shipped in retail packaging — both streams trigger separate registration obligations, each with its own documentation requirements, volume reporting metrics, and compliance timelines.
Getting this right from the start required converting product data into the correct unit of measurement for EPR purposes: weight in kilograms rather than volume or unit counts. It also meant understanding which data to include per country, given that Morgenstern already held EPR registration in Germany and cross-country data had to be separated accordingly.
Why Lappa
Morgenstern GmbH needed a partner to handle dual-stream EPR registration across two markets while providing clear guidance on data preparation.
Key strengths included:
- Simultaneous registration for packaging and textiles across France and Spain
- Authorized representation in countries where it was required
- Guidance on converting product and sales data into weight-based reporting figures
- Country-specific advice on documentation requirements and compliance deadlines
- Ongoing support as textile EPR requirements continue to develop across EU markets

EPR registration completed in France and Spain across both packaging and textile streams

What’s Next
Morgenstern GmbH continues to sell across European markets with packaging and textile EPR covered in France and Spain. Lappa remains available to support annual reporting cycles and extend registration into additional EU countries as the brand grows its European footprint.
