For 13 years, Philippe Dubois shaped the industry as President of the Swiss Packaging Institute SVI. Philippe Dubois was bid farewell at the members' meeting on 16 May 2025 in Olten.

In the laudatory speech, held by SVI Managing Director Andreas Zopfi, Dubois' consistently positive, goal-oriented manner was emphasised. With great foresight, he had transformed the SVI from a traditional industry association into a profit-orientated SME, it was said. He was bid farewell by the 42 people in attendance with great applause.

„A big thank you for the trust and support you have shown me over the years. Looking to the future, I wish my successor the same energetic support. I wish you all the very best for 2025 - health, success and happiness. It has been an honour to work with you.“
