Paris Packaging Week is a premier event for the global packaging industry, bringing together professionals from the beauty, luxury, drinks, and aerosol markets to showcase the latest innovations, trends, and sustainable solutions. The event provides a platform for over 650 exhibitors and attracts more than 12,000 attendees from around the world. Each year, the Future Leaders program recognizes top emerging talents under the age of 30 who are shaping the future of packaging.
With nearly a decade of experience in the cosmetic industry, Bouman has distinguished himself as a pioneer and visionary. His journey began at FASTEN Packaging, where he joined as an intern at the age of 19. Demonstrating exceptional creativity and innovation, he quickly rose through the ranks to become Creative Director and later Design Director for Europe. Now, at just 27, Bouman oversees all branding, design, and marketing activities for the European market within IBG, which includes Orchard Custom Beauty and FASTEN Packaging.
Bouman’s success stems from his impressive ability to blend luxury, quality, and accessibility in his designs. To further the burgeoning affordable luxury segment, he has consistently created high-quality beauty packaging solutions tailored to the discount retailer market. His forward-thinking approach has allowed him to thrive in an ever-evolving industry, continually delivering beauty products that resonate with consumers while pushing the boundaries of design.
“I’m honored to be named a Future Leader at such a globally renowned event,” said Bouman. “IBG has always been committed to pushing the boundaries of packaging innovation, and I’m excited to continue leading projects that reflect our values of sustainability and creativity.”
