Appointment of the Packaging Woman Netherlands 2026

Tuesday 14 April 2026
Empack Netherlands Gorinchem
4-5.30 PM CEST

On Tuesday 17 March 2026, the selection committee for the Packaging Woman Netherlands 2026 came together and decided who would be chosen from a total of 29 nominees.

Be there on Tuesday afternoon, 14 April 2026 at 4.00 PM CET at Empack Netherlands to congratulate her at the official appointment ceremony – and to enjoy the after-party afterwards

With the appointment of the Packaging Woman Netherlands 2026, NVC Packaging Centre and Empack Netherlands are fostering the sustainable strengthening of the packaging sector by promoting female expertise in packaging. Their efforts are inspired by the Sustainable AGEing (SAGE) movement, that is working towards tomorrow’s sustainably ageing society.

Both quantitatively (the looming shortage of skilled packaging staff) and qualitatively (good decision-making requires equal influence from women and men), the Packaging Woman Netherlands is a source of inspiration for men and women, boys and girls, and current and future generations in the field of packaging.

Click here for more background information on SAGE and send an email to the NVC association office, for the attention of Michael Nieuwesteeg, or to Easyfairs Netherlands, for the attention of Susanne den Otter, to register as a candidate for Packaging Woman Netherlands 2027.

You are, of course, also very welcome to visit us at the NVC stand H57 during the trade fair.
