When one device triggers three compliance obligations
Selling physical electronic devices in the EU triggers EPR obligations across several product categories at once. Radiacode’s products — compact radiation measurement devices shipped with batteries and packaged for retail — fall under three separate regulatory streams: packaging waste, electrical and electronic equipment (EEE), and batteries. Each stream carries its own registration requirements, reporting schedules, and, in some countries, the obligation to appoint a local authorized representative.
Expanding into additional EU markets made the compliance picture significantly more complex. Radiacode needed to register in multiple countries within a defined timeframe, coordinate authorized representation where it applied, and set up a reporting structure capable of handling all three product streams without duplicating effort across jurisdictions.
Why Lappa
Radiacode chose Lappa to manage the full registration process and ongoing reporting across all required markets.
Key strengths included:
- Multi-country EPR registration across all three applicable product categories in a single engagement
- Appointment of authorized representatives in countries where non-EU producers cannot register directly
- A unified reporting platform covering packaging, EEE, and battery streams with separate report management for each
- Transparent fee structure with clear timelines for each country and product category
- Ongoing compliance support covering annual and periodic reporting obligations as they fall due
Results & Impact
EPR registration completed in multiple EU countries across packaging, EEE, and battery streams
Authorized representation arranged in all jurisdictions where it was required
All three product category streams configured and active within a single reporting platform
Regulatory risk removed ahead of active sales in newly entered EU markets
What’s Next
Radiacode will continue selling its devices across European markets with EPR obligations covered. Lappa remains the compliance partner for annual and periodic reporting across all three product streams, with capacity to extend registration into additional EU countries as the company’s market presence grows.
