Topic of the month: novelties

A new year marks a new cycle with new opportunities. We are starting this year by highlighting novelties from our sector. In December 2020 a lot of awards were presented to companies with new products or useful and sustainable concepts, such as the Glazen Tulp Awards and the Greenovation Award. There are also two online trade fairs this month at which many novelties will be presented. Alongside the information that you can find on this page, we also share a lot on our social media channels. All these initiatives and fabulous products definitely give us fresh energy - hopefully they will do the same for you. We hope you enjoy reading it!

Throughout the year we will be looking back with you over the past 60 years, in which a lot of remarkable things have happened.

Topic of the month: Trend Human Touch

The growth of technology and the climate crisis are worrying us; as a result we have a need for friendliness, familiarity and recognisability. Humanity is more important than ever now, including for products and brands. Think of rounded and organic shapes and a warm and friendly colour palette. These trends are the basis for the ‘Human Touch’ style trend. We would like to show you some examples of this trend, and thereby hope to inspire you to get to work with this trend yourself as well.
