Gold in packaging innovation worldwide inspires participants Fachpack 23-25 September 2025
The first edition of packaging innovation contest De Gouden Noot took place in 1958. By organising De Gouden Noot, NVC Packaging Centre promotes holistic innovation in packaging worldwide. The name of the contest is reflected in the unique winner's trophy. This contains a walnut made of solid gold: the symbol of the number one in packaging innovation
