KEYNOTE

Opening Keynote: A model of virtuous innovation: Earthwake, by its co-founder, François Danel.

This year, 370 million tons of plastic will be produced and 11 million will end up directly in the oceans. Earthwake was created by Samuel Le Bihan, committed French actor, and François Danel (former General Director of NGO Action against Hunger) –  to respond to a double challenge: to fight against this plastic pollution and to respond to a growing need for local energy. Their solution is to revalue this waste in order to encourage its collection.

Invented and developed in France, the Chrysalis solution allows plastic waste (HDPE, LDPE, PP) to be returned to its original state: oil. It can be installed easily into extremely polluted areas, particularly in developing countries and island regions, ultimately creating a positive impact on their economic growth.

During this exclusive keynote, François Danel will present the genesis of Earthwake, all the virtuous aspects of this project, the transition from the status of an association to a company with environmental impact, and its future to meet with the challenges of tomorrow. François Danel will supplement his keynote with a high level audience Q & A to facilitate expert industry solutions to take on and execute impact for a better environment.

Refill / Reuse: exploring the reality of the market

From the beverage to the cosmetics industry, reuse initiatives are on the rise. However, the adoption rate by consumers remains at the margins of the market. Logistical and hygiene constraints, training and space issues for retailers, consumer perception and pricing policies: the road to reuse is not a smooth one. How do historic or independent brands sail on these rough waters? What are the key factors of success to align this ideal with the reality of the market?

Creating Iconic Packaging with the Planet in Mind

As brands transition away from plastic and look to paper as a solution, many are unaware that the paper alternatives they’ve chosen are high-risk, causing a significant impact on the world’s forests, climate, and biodiversity. But what is the solution? Innovative, Next Generation fibres for paper packaging deliver the beauty and quality desired, help keep forests standing, and reduce carbon emissions by at least 95% on average. Join award-winning not-for-profit Canopy, the world’s leading luxury brand LVMH, and Next Gen fibre innovator ReStalk as they discuss high-quality, low-carbon Next Gen packaging for the luxury market, and the remarkable benefits of these innovative solutions.

James Cropper COLOURFORM & Perrier-Jouët box Up the Perfect Blend of Beauty and Sustainability

Maison Perrier-Jouët partnered directly with sustainable packaging brand COLOURFORM, to challenge the norms of luxury. Together they created an eco-designed gift box that marries beauty with environmental commitment seamlessly in the luxury market. The Belle Epoque ‘Cocoon’ has been designed for the champagne house’s vintage cuvees Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque and Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque Rosé. The box perfectly envelops the bottle, enhancing its shape. Offering a unique design profile with a pleasing sweep producing an organic and natural feel, only the golden cap crowning the champagne is revealed which is showcased by a small petal-like collar.

In addition to its featherweight of 49 grams, which is 93% lighter than the previous gift box, the Belle Epoque Cocoon is designed with only two natural materials, paper pulp prepared from FSC® approved sustainably managed forests and vine shoots from France.

Centurybox Mainetti and Delvaux, a partnership and a common commitment for a more sustainable future.

Centurybox Mainetti and its client, Delvaux, have had a long-standing collaboration for over 15 years. Together they have committed to a more environmentally friendly approach by using 100% paper and cardboard packaging, without plastic or foam, which reduces their impact on the environment. The boxes are mainly delivered flat, in order to optimize transport costs and reduce the CO² impact. Production is split 50% in Europe/Turkey and 50% in China to meet the needs of the global market. This collaboration between Centurybox Mainetti and Baobab shows their common commitment to a more sustainable future.

Themes: Recycling, Relocation.

Deciphering French and European regulations: how legislation is steering the current state of packaging industry?

While the “French act of law against waste and for a circular economy ” (AGEC law) announced by France in February 2020 was a pioneer in Europe, new European legislation could soon supersede or even contradict it. Let’s have an overview of the draft regulations that could revolutionize the packaging sector and the implications for market players.

Conference

To what extent can committed brands extend their reach for real consumer disruption?

An increasing number of luxury brands are setting very ambitious CSR objectives. How do they arbitrate between commercial interests, consumers’ sometimes contradictory expectations and brand image? Can they be pioneers in order to drive other market players and “educate” consumers to influence their buying behavior?

Presentation 1 : ESTAL and Maison Fontaine: an aesthetic and ethical collaboration.

Maison Fontaine asked ESTAL to design a bottle for a typically French aperitif. They were looking for an “old-fashioned” shape in which the 100% recycled glass would fit in perfectly, both from an aesthetic point of view and in terms of the sustainable message they wanted to convey.

Themes: Eco-design, Recycling

Presentation 2 : TAPI and COGNACS TIFFON: A collaboration in the favour of re-use.

Founded in 1875 in Jarnac, Maison Tiffon had a clear objective : to reduce the environmental impact of its packaging. This has been achieved thanks to the Tapi group’s T-cask innovation: the cognac brand has been able to reuse ageing barrels that have reached the end of their life cycle to create unique oak corks.

Theme: Reuse
