Packaging Première is a selective exhibition dedicated to connecting designers and manufacturers of luxury packaging with the major international brands looking to create an unmistakable mark of luxury for their products.
Launched in Milan in 2017, the event has developed an unrivalled position in driving the luxury packaging business in luxury products, fashion, accessories, retail, and fine food; and the launch of Packaging Première at London Packaging Week in 2022 has brought this unique annual meeting place to the £13.5bn UK luxury products market.
Since its launch in Paris in 2001, PCD has become the world’s premier event brand for the beauty packaging community, connecting and inspiring innovation and business for brands, designers and suppliers alike.
The launch of PCD London into the UK’s £13.18bn beauty and personal care market adds to the existing editions in Paris and Milan, extending this trusted network of beauty packaging innovators to the UK’s perfume and cosmetics market.
PLD connects packaging developers, designers and suppliers to define the future of packaging for all types of premium and luxury drinks – from wine and spirits to premium beers and soft drinks.
The event’s launch into the £23m UK alcoholic drinks market will bring a unique formula that has developed since PLD’s launch in Paris in 2020, where it has earned the support of key brand owners including Diageo, Edrington, Atom Brands, Pernod Ricard, LVMH and many more.
The newest brand at London Packaging Week, Food & Consumer Pack is designed to drive packaging innovation across the £200bn market for everyday food, drinks and FMCG products.
The event enables the innovation projects of packaging technologists and designers working for brands and retailers, by inspiring them with the latest products and knowledge; and connecting them with packaging suppliers who will help them create the future of their packs.
