James Cropper is set to showcase four of its British-made paper product ranges at Paris Packaging Week, which will take place on 5 and 6 February 2026 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles.
At the event, visitors to stand F62 will receive Uncoated Colors notebooks featuring sample books from three James Cropper ranges: Kendal Manila, Vanguard, and the recently-released Coloursource, which is available exclusively through global materials supplier Winter & Company.
James Cropper will also present its “Sometimes it is Black & White” folder, developed in collaboration with Foilco and Dreyer Kliche. The folder includes ten sheets from the Rydal range, including Rydal Eco White and Black, Rydal Apparel, and original white and black grades from the Rydal Packaging Collection. These products include fully recycled, part-recycled and fresh fiber options.
Rydal Eco Black and White papers are produced from 100% recycled fiber. Rydal Apparel incorporates 20% worn denim and is designed for luxury packaging applications.
Paul Barber, managing director of James Cropper Paper & Packaging, said, “If you’re a luxury, fashion, or beauty brand looking for proof that sustainable choices don’t have to mean sacrificing aesthetics, look no further. Whether you want impactful minimalism using dynamic blacks and whites, or you want to liven up a new product line with a splash of color, you can find the perfect solution at our booth. The James Cropper difference is that you can have literally anything you want from our paper – and that versatility will be on show in Paris.”
He added, “It’s a privilege to work with our select industry partners to bring the best of British paper to Paris Packaging Week. With four high-quality product ranges on the booth, it’s set to be our biggest and most wide-reaching show yet, and we’re excited to connect with new and old faces alike this February.”
James Cropper said its appearance at Paris Packaging Week follows a series of developments during 2025, including the launch of Coloursource in partnership with Winter & Company, the company’s 180th anniversary celebrations, and a senior leadership team restructure.
