On May 31st and June 1st, the third edition of Edition Spéciale by Luxe Pack will open its doors at the Carreau du Temple in Paris. This unique event brings together all eco-designed packaging solutions in a single venue.
The event will welcome 65 exhibitors selected for their know-how and expertise in ECODESIGNING SUSTAINABLE PACKAGINGS, and will feature a program entirely built around brands committed to sustainable development.
Once again this year, the show confirms the balance between exhibitors and strong content, with the presence of indisputable experts in sustainability and circularity. The event aims to unite brands that are considering the challenge of eco-design: they will be able to find the inspiration to get involved and the keys to grasping this challenge, just like the leading brands in the field: they will come to discuss the latest innovations that are really making a difference. In addition to the plenary conferences, PITCHS START-UP sessions will give the floor to young companies who have decided to draw inspiration from the living world or reinvent existing materials to help brands reduce their environmental impact on a daily basis.
