Broad incumbents

• ProAmpac: Global flexible and specialty packaging company with a presence in beauty and luxury-adjacent end markets. Comparable as a broader packaging incumbent overlapping with Cosfibel's e-commerce and bags/pouches offering, though not a luxury pure-play.
• Smurfit Westrock: Global paper-based packaging giant formed from the Smurfit Kappa / WestRock merger. Comparable to Cosfibel at the packaging-materials level but operating at vastly greater scale and not a luxury specialist.
• Pochet Group: French luxury packaging manufacturer (glass, flacons, plastics) serving top perfume and beauty brands. Comparable as a French luxury packaging incumbent and fellow TRASCE consortium member, with broader scope than Cosfibel's primary paper-based business.
• Albéa Group: Global leader in cosmetics packaging (tubes, dispensers, compacts, makeup). Comparable as a large-scale beauty packaging incumbent and fellow TRASCE consortium member, operating a much wider portfolio than Cosfibel.
