Introducing ExpertON – meet the people behind AR EUROPE.
Behind every successful solution, there are people.
Through EXPERTON, we’d like to introduce you to the people behind AR EUROPE - the experts and professionals whose knowledge, experience and daily work help businesses navigate environmental compliance across Europe.
They’ll share their perspectives on working with clients, the challenges businesses face and the experiences they’ve gained throughout their careers.
Because behind regulations, processes and compliance solutions, there are always people working to make complex matters clearer and easier to manage.
For the first edition of ExpertON, meet Ignacy Kaźmierczak.
Let’s get to know his perspective.
1. What is your role and what do you do on a daily basis?
I work with business partners and support them in navigating their environmental obligations related to the products they place on the market.
My role involves building and developing long-term relationships, understanding each client's needs and helping them find practical solutions when it comes to environmental compliance.
I work with businesses dealing with different product categories, including electrical and electronic equipment, packaging, batteries and other products covered by EPR requirements.
My goal is to make the entire process as clear, smooth and manageable as possible for the client.
2. Working with clients - a job or a mission? How do you see it?
At first, for many people, it’s simply about everyday responsibilities: emails, meetings, sales targets and tasks to complete. That’s how I started too.
But over time, your perspective can change.
Working with clients is ultimately about working with people - their needs, expectations and sometimes their concerns. Very often, we become the link between a problem and a solution. And when we approach that with empathy and genuine commitment, we’re not just providing a service - we’re building trust.
Over time, you begin to notice those moments when you have genuinely helped someone. And that can bring enormous satisfaction.
For some, it will always be simply a job. For others, it can become something more. It all depends on your approach, your values and what you choose to see in your work.
3. What is one of the biggest challenges businesses face when it comes to EPR?
One of the biggest challenges is understanding that environmental compliance can be much more complex than it initially appears.
For businesses operating internationally, the challenge can become even greater, as requirements may vary depending on the country, the products placed on the market and the way the business operates.
That's why understanding your obligations early is so important. The earlier a business identifies what may apply to them, the easier it is to prepare, organise the necessary processes and avoid unnecessary complications later.
In my experience, good cooperation starts with understanding the client's business and looking at their individual situation rather than searching for one universal solution.
Because when it comes to EPR, the right approach often starts with asking the right questions.
ExpertON is our way of introducing the people behind AR EUROPE - their knowledge, experience and perspectives.
