Papeteries de Vizille: Papermaking Expertise in Service of Responsible Luxury Packaging

For more than four centuries, building on this unique industrial heritage, the company has continued to support market developments by creating solutions that combine aesthetic excellence with environmental responsibility.

At Édition Spéciale by LUXE PACK, Papeteries de Vizille is placing a particular focus on its covering papers for luxury boxes and canisters intended for the cosmetics, perfumery, champagne, and spirits sectors. Among the flagship projects showcased this year is a spirits canister developed in collaboration with Digital Packaging, perfectly illustrating this approach. Produced using DeLuxPack Smooth 140 gsm premium paper from the DeLux Collection, the project emphasizes raw materials and authenticity as its guiding principles.

The paper’s printability and finishing quality enhance the design without relying on unnecessary embellishments. The entire packaging solution, composed of greyboard, covering paper, and metal, is fully recyclable. Only a carefully applied hot-foil stamping accentuates selected graphic elements, demonstrating that premium packaging can successfully combine creativity, high-quality execution, and environmental restraint.

The DeLux Collection is a range of uncoated, pure cellulose boards and papers dedicated to premium packaging. It stands out through two refined textures: an elegant rough finish and a smooth, pure finish. The collection is available in two natural-inspired white shades. Ranging from 120 gsm to 280 gsm, this versatile range gives designers the freedom to create luxury boxes, folding cartons, fragrance cards, greeting cards, garment tags, and much more. Discover inspiration through authentic papers that combine history with unique craftsmanship.

A Long-Term Industrial and Environmental Commitment

Papeteries de Vizille has observed a market shift towards greater sustainability, recyclability, and reusability, particularly in the context of the implementation of the PPWR. The company notes that all stakeholders across the packaging industry are preparing for these new requirements.

As a paper manufacturer, Papeteries de Vizille is continuously working to improve its paper formulations in order to offer customers papers with excellent tactile qualities while using less material and avoiding additional chemical inputs.

The company also highlights its strong industrial and regional roots. Today, 70% of the energy used in its production comes from renewable sources, thanks to a biomass boiler and two hydroelectric turbines.

To meet brands’ growing expectations for transparency, Papeteries de Vizille holds PEFC, FSC, ISO 50001, and ISO 9001 certifications. The company is also certified under the “Made in France” label.
