The Glass and Crystal Industry joins Paris Packaging Week 2022 to offer you a photo exhibition dedicated to glass

The United Nations has declared 2022 the International Year of Glass, highlighting the role of glass in science, business, art and culture. Glass is essential to many vital technologies, facilitates the transition to a more sustainable world and beautifies our lives.

To celebrate the International Year of Glass, Paris Packaing Week 2022 is hosting a photo exhibition in the Ambassador Lounge and the PLD (Premium and Luxury Drinks) area of the show.

The exhibition includes photos of the know-how of members of the Glass and Crystal Industry who exhibit at Paris Packaging Week 2022 such as: Stoelzle Glass Group, Verescence, Groupe Pochet and Waltersperger.

The aim is to present the diversity of uses of glass through several user testimonies (design, architecture, luxury world) as well as presenting the formidable potential of glass in the field of the creation of forms and products, in that of sustainable housing with increased access to light and improved thermal performance.

This association between the Federation of Glass Industries, the Federation of Crystal and Glass and the Paris Packaging Week is only one of the many events organized throughout 2022 to raise awareness of glass, highlight the excellence and diversity of its trades and know-how and inform the younger generations of the prospects that the glass industry can offer them.

An exhibition that invites you to travel through France’s glassmakers to discover their know-how, techniques, processes and achievements. From the workshop to the factory, from the art craftsman to the industrial glassmaker, from the haute couture bead to the scientific instrument, from the exhibition gallery to the museum, from the initiation place to the training centre, the glassmakers lift the veil on the unsuspected richness and diversity of their trades and their creativity.

Glass, an exceptional material. Present in our daily lives and at the heart of many applications, glass is an exceptional material due to its multiple properties. It is a major asset in the fight against global warming (building and transport glazing, glass wool, solar panels, wind power, etc.). It is the ideal material for packaging beverages and food products, perfumes and cosmetics as well as pharmaceutical products, and is also a key material in tableware.

Come and see the photo exhibition of the glassmakers’ know-how at the Paris Packaging Week 2022.
