EDITION SPECIALE by LUXE PACK PROGRAM – REVEAL – PART 1

EDITION SPECIALE by LUXE PACK, the trade show dedicated to sustainable premium packaging, will
be held on 31 August and 1 September 2021 at the Carreau du Temple in Paris; nearly 65 exhibitors
and 2,000 visitors are expected.

Scheduled at the end of the summer, the show, which will be held in improved sanitary conditions, means to position itself as a stimulus booster for the packaging industry and promote packaging innovation in terms of sustainable development for all industries: perfume/cosmetics, wines and spirits, delicatessen, and fashion/leather goods.

This year, the show has decided to address a fundamental issue for the entire luxury sector while retaining its ‘sustainable packaging, responsible consumption’ theme. ‘A choice that rings home as the luxury industry intends to play a major role in the great challenge of ecological transition. The health crisis and the “post-covid world” issue have only accelerated something that is now inevitable and affecting all sectors’, commented the organiser.

This event will host 65 exhibitors selected for their know-how and expertise in SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING ECO-DESIGN.
Exhibitors include leading luxury packaging manufacturers as well as 15% new international stakeholders to guarantee visitors a range of packaging solutions designed with concern for the environmental: weight reduction, reloadability, ‘clean’ finishing, natural materials, plant-based wedges, etc.

Companies that have confirmed their participation: ARJOWIGGINS, BARALAN, BORMIOLI LUIGI, CENTURY BOX, DIAM PACK, ESKA, FAVINI, GAINERIE 91, KNOLL, PREMI, PROCOS, VERESCENCE, etc

New exhibitors: CHIC, FURLANIS, GERRESHEIMER, HEINZ, LES MOUETTES VERTES, LESSEBO, VAN GENECHTEN PACKAGING, SWEDBRAND POLAND SP. Z O.O, GOLDEN ARROW, etc.
