In February 2026, we exhibited for the very first time at PLD Paris, a prestigious trade fair during Paris Packaging Week 2026. At our stand, visitors could admire custom-made premium glass bottles, including four different sizes of the award-winning Belvedere 10 glass bottle. We spoke with potential clients, explored the latest industry trends, and… saw a truly astonishing amount of champagne all at once. Discover what Edwanex was doing at PLD Paris 2026.
PLD Paris 2026 as an Important Part of Paris Packaging Week
PLD – Packaging of Premium & Luxury Drinks – took place on February 5–6, 2026, during Paris Packaging Week. This prestigious event focuses on innovation and inspiration within the premium beverage packaging industry. Paris, home to many luxury brands and a city renowned for its unique elegance, is the perfect location for such an event.
PLD brings together luxury packaging designers, leading suppliers, producers of premium wines, spirits, and soft drinks, as well as other industry specialists. Naturally, Edwanex could not miss the opportunity to be there.
The Edwanex Stand at PLD Paris 2026
It was our first time exhibiting at PLD Paris. We attended the fair last year as visitors, where we established many valuable connections. We realized it would be worth returning in a more official capacity. It proved to be an excellent decision!
For two days, our stand attracted constant interest from visitors. The greatest admiration was reserved for the impressive luxury Belvedere 10 bottle, custom-made for Polmos Żyrardów, part of Moët Hennessy Polska, which belongs to the European luxury goods group LVMH. This glass vodka bottle won the Formes de Luxe 2023 award in the “Wine & Spirits Bottle” category. We brought along four sizes of this glass masterpiece – from the 50 ml bottle featured at Formula 1 races to the 1.75 l bottle seen at some of the world’s most exclusive events.
Our newest product also received an extremely positive response: an exclusive glass perfume bottle. Entirely handmade and sealed with an airtight glass stopper, this unique packaging perfectly reflects the zero-waste philosophy, as it is designed to be refilled and reused multiple times.
Networking, Project Discussions, and Large Quantities of Champagne
We made the most of the two days at PLD 2026. We established valuable connections with many complementary exhibitors and potential clients, including important discussions with suppliers from Poland. The networking resulted in several new projects that we cannot reveal just yet – but we will certainly share more details in the future.
One unexpected yet highly enjoyable highlight of PLD was the Champagne Networking Party. This part of the program took place in a spacious networking area. It was accompanied by the relaxing music of a three-piece orchestra. It provided the perfect opportunity to build relationships with other participants in a more casual atmosphere. We had never seen so much champagne in one place before! It was served continuously for two full hours.
We consider our trip to Paris an outstanding success, because we gained valuable contacts and began working on exciting new challenges. We will definitely be back next year!
