We are The Packaging People
A proud and motivated team
A family business with a global vision
Faes began in Reusel as a passionate flight case builder for touring bands. Since then we have grown into an international, full-service packaging partner. With our Brabant roots still guiding our down-to-earth approach, craftsmanship and focus on the community.
Our team – the Packaging People – combines in-house engineering, design and logistics expertise to deliver customized packaging strategies. We offer the full package: from conceptual design to production, digital tools such as PackAssist and StackAssist, and ongoing consulting.
Our future is sustainable
As a Brabant family business, innovation is in our DNA. Supported by a network of technical partners, we are constantly developing our solutions, whether it’s lightweight construction, harvesting materials before they become waste or designing for repair, reuse and recycling. Sustainability is not an afterthought; it drives progress.
Johan Faes: a man with a mission
Johan Faes, embodies the spirit of craftsmanship, curiosity and innovation that characterizes Faes. With his deep-rooted Brabant roots, Johan combines a down-to-earth mentality with a visionary drive and always with a clear mission: to reshape the role of packaging in the industry.
From his early days in the workshop, Johan has been pushing the original family values of ingenuity and quality. But his ambition does not stop at making sturdy flight cases. He is convinced that packaging can do much more: it serves as a strategic asset, supports sustainability and improves logistics performance.

What drives us?
Innovation with impact. We believe packaging can be smarter, cleaner and more strategic. Whether it’s digital tools, circular solutions or smart design. We help companies cut costs, reduce CO₂ and protect what’s important.
People with a purpose. Our colleagues are not numbers. They are thinkers, builders, connectors – each with a unique role in shaping the future of packaging. We invest in people because we know that progress comes from within.
Collaboration is the basis of smart packaging
At Faes, we believe that the best solutions come from collaboration. That’s why we work with a diverse network of companies, suppliers and technology providers, each with their own expertise and each with a vital role in building more efficient, sustainable and intelligent packaging chains.
More than suppliers. Real employees.
We don’t just look for suppliers, we look for strategic partners who share our drive for innovation and commitment to long-term impact. Whether it’s advanced materials, circular logistics or digital tooling, our partners help us push boundaries and deliver measurable value to our customers.
