Knoll has set a new standard for their sustainable approach, quality and technical achievements, printing techniques, and first-to-market designs. The next generation of Knoll Packaging is here, as they reshape the definition of sustainability in luxury packaging by eliminating plastics and through expanded manufacturing capabilities in Europe and the Philippines.

Knoll Packaging announced a strategic commercial partnership with Albertini Packaging Group (APG) that brings Knoll’s quality production into Europe. Knoll developed proprietary machinery that is automated with technical upgrades that have never been achieved before in Europe. Through the partnership with APG, Knoll will be able to achieve its regionalisation goals, and completely change the quality of packaging available to be manufactured in Europe. The first European-produced coffrets are currently in production and will launch in 2023.

In addition to its new European rigid box production, Knoll also began offering European production of its award-winning Knoll Ecoform molded pulp.

Through these sustainable innovations, Knoll is on track to eliminate 200 metric tons of plastic from its supply chain by summer 2023.
