Luxe Pack 2018

The intense three days in Monaco (1-3 October 2018), dedicated to creativity and innovation in high-end packaging, closed its doors, generating a record volume of business, in a stimulating and positive business environment.
At the 31st edition, 470 exhibitors took part, including the top global producers and 55 new entries, all acknowledging the quality of the relationships struck up at the fair: of the roughly 9280 visitors, 53% were international (from 86 countries), and about 8 out of 10 (78.5%) played a decision-making role, representing all sectors (over 60% perfumery and cosmetics, followed by wines and spirits, fashion, gastronomy, pharmacy and health, jewelry and watches, tableware and decoration, leather goods, tobacco, writing instruments, etc.). The positive outcome of the event was confirmed by the record attendance at conferences and the continuous use of meeting rooms available to producers and buyers for the entire duration of the fair.
 
The “green” winners. Among the most popular events, this year the Luxe Pack in Green competition rewarded the most interesting solutions in terms of sustainability. Qualipac (Pochet Group) was the winner of the Packaging Solutions category with its “L’essentiel” make-up case, utra-light and made with a mono-material of biological origin and entirely recyclable. The special jury prize went to Billerudkorsnäs for Fibreform, a champagne bottle stopper entirely made of virgin fibre, and therefore 100% recyclable. Finally, the recognition for Corporate Social Responsibility was assigned to Verescence, by virtue of its virtuous approach in organizing production, summarized by the claim “Glass made to last”.
