The Packaging Innovation Cluster continues to strengthen its position within the packaging industry with a network now comprising 111 member companies, representing 63% of the sector’s total turnover in the Valencian Community. Altogether, the companies belonging to the organisation generate more than €3.6 billion in turnover and create over 9,000 direct jobs.
During the last financial year, the Cluster exceeded €389,000 in revenue in 2025, representing a 15.1% increase compared with the previous year.
In addition, the organisation continues to expand its activity with more than thirty actions per year, including business meetings, workshops, sector dialogues, breakfasts and networking spaces, as well as a community of more than 1,000 connected professionals and the promotion of several innovation projects over the last three years.
The Cluster’s president, Amaya Fernández, highlights that “one of the Cluster’s main purposes is to stand alongside companies when the environment becomes more complex, provide vision in times of uncertainty and turn information into a competitiveness tool.”

Currently, the packaging sector in the Valencian Community comprises 410 active companies, generating a turnover of €5.8 billion and representing 13.8% of the region’s industrial GDP and 2.4% of total regional GDP.
In this context, the Cluster claims its role as a connection and support platform for companies operating in an environment marked by geopolitical uncertainty, energy volatility, raw material tensions and logistical difficulties — factors that directly affect planning, costs and business competitiveness.
With a membership base that integrates companies specialising in raw materials and components, machinery and technology, plastics, paper and cardboard, specialised solutions, brands, end users, expert networks and technological innovation, the organisation works around three major strategic pillars: networking, innovation and knowledge.
These three lines of action are aimed at connecting the entire value chain, promoting collaborative projects and facilitating useful information on legislation, markets and trends to help companies make more informed decisions.
