Description

Packaging Compliance Support for SMEs (PPWR Focus)

I support small and growing companies in understanding and applying the upcoming EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) in a practical and accessible way.

With a solid background in packaging, compliance, and cross-functional project management, I help businesses identify risks, improve their packaging strategies, and align with European regulatory requirements without unnecessary complexity.

My services are especially tailored for SMEs, startups, and e-commerce companies that do not have internal regulatory expertise but need to ensure their packaging is compliant and future-proof.

What I can help with:

Quick packaging compliance assessments (PPWR readiness)
Identification of regulatory gaps and risks
Guidance on labeling and environmental claims
Practical recommendations to improve compliance
Support in structuring internal packaging information

My approach is pragmatic, clear, and adapted to the reality of smaller organizations: focused on what matters, avoiding over-engineering, and enabling fast decision-making.

If you are placing products on the EU market and want to make sure your packaging is aligned with PPWR requirements, I can support you with a simple and effective approach.
