Packaging is to a product what clothing is to a person. Its texture, colour and the way it holds its shape: everything speaks before the contents are revealed. At SYSKEVASIA ’26, we talked about paper as the starting point of design. About the tactile experience that makes you stop and take notice. About packaging you choose to keep, even after it is empty. And about everything that isn't immediately visible: the origin of the fibres, the production process and the potential for recycling. We explored paper options carrying certifications such as FSC®, which ensures the responsible sourcing of forest-based materials, and Cradle to Cradle Certified®, which assesses materials and processes against circular economy criteria. Because the character of a package begins with its material. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us at our table, browsed, touched, and asked questions. The conversation continues.
