Delivered as Excel-based output with detailed calculation tabs and summary insights, plus consultant-led findings discussion. One-time project engagement with collaborative scope definition.
3. Registration Services: End-to-end EPR registration support across all relevant markets including compliance scheme registrations, national authority registrations, and assistance with historic activity and retrospective fees. Coordinated parallel processing for packaging, WEEE, batteries, and textiles registrations.
4. Obligation Assessment: Market-specific review translating complex EPR requirements into practical next steps. Includes jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction breakdown of applicable legislation, thresholds, exemptions, authorized representative requirements, upcoming developments, labelling and design rules, and identification of obligated activities.

Scale indicators6 records

Direct peers

• Valpak: UK-based packaging compliance scheme operator and consultancy offering EPR registration, reporting, and data services to producers. Direct competitor to Lorax in UK/EU packaging compliance with overlapping enterprise customer base.
• Anthesis Group: Global sustainability consultancy with significant EPR, packaging compliance, and producer responsibility service lines. Closest peer in scale and scope — combines consulting, managed compliance, and proprietary tools for EPR obligations.
• Reconomy: UK-headquartered compliance and waste-services provider offering producer responsibility registrations, reporting, and scheme management. Comparable in geographic focus, customer base, and EPR service portfolio.
• Resource Recycling Systems (RRS): US-based sustainability consulting and software firm supporting packaging compliance, EPR scheme design, and producer reporting. Most comparable US-headquartered peer addressing North American EPR regimes.

Emerging players

• Resource Future: UK specialist consultancy focused on Extended Producer Responsibility, packaging compliance, and circular economy strategy. Smaller-scale peer with overlapping niche focus on producer responsibility advisory and data services.
• BWB Compliance: UK-based environmental compliance and permitting consultancy offering waste, packaging, and producer responsibility support. Comparable specialist positioning though less software-centric than Lorax.

Broad incumbents

• Sphera: Enterprise EHS and product compliance software platform (formerly part of UL) covering environmental reporting, packaging compliance, and sustainability data. Overlaps with Lorax at the software layer but serves a much broader compliance remit.
• Workiva: Cloud compliance, ESG, and regulatory reporting platform used by large enterprises for sustainability and non-financial disclosures. Adjacent platform that could expand into EPR-specific workflows.
• ERM (Environmental Resources Management): Global environmental consultancy providing packaging compliance, EPR advisory, and product sustainability services. Comparable service portfolio at significantly larger scale, often serving the same Fortune 500 producer customers.

Others

• Closed Loop Partners: Investment and advisory firm focused on circular economy and packaging recovery infrastructure. Operates adjacent to Lorax's customer base and increasingly engages on EPR compliance strategy for brands and producers.
