Metamorphosis™: The Art of Transforming Packaging into an Object of Desire

Essentia, renowned for its expertise in full-service development of complex projects, stands out for its creative approach and ability to design unique concepts and innovative solutions.

At the upcoming Salon Places d’Or, Essentia will reveal the potential of Metamorphosis™: a combination of decorative techniques and technologies capable of elevating packaging, regardless of materials. Mastery of digital printing, combined with technological innovations that incorporate metallic effects, opens up new possibilities. “Our exclusive partnership with the Italian company MAD allows us to combine their exceptional know-how with our deep understanding of the needs and constraints of the cosmetics sector,” explains Katia de Martino.

The flexibility and responsiveness in decorative trials offer brands a unique opportunity to explore new avenues of premiumization for their packaging and to bring vibrancy to their line with limited editions. This approach represents a new frontier, merging the benefits of craftsmanship with the industrial scalability brands need to adapt productivity to their requirements.
