Lightweight Glass Packaging

Home / Food & Beverages / Services / Lightweight Glass Packaging

Glass packaging is renowned for its infinite recyclability, making it an inherently environmentally conscious choice. At Stoelzle, we’re committed to taking our environmental responsibility even further. We have effectively reduced the weight of certain standard items and are actively exploring weight reduction strategies across our product range. For example, we have successfully reduced the weight of our 200ml infinity jar by 21.7%, resulting in a CO2 reduction of 16.5g per jar produced.

Benefits of lightweight glass

Lightweight glass bottles for fruit juices

Stoelzle Glass Group is proud to have developed a bespoke yet lightweight glass bottle for Oryginalny Sok’s premium fruit juices. The company defines quality not only by the exceptional calibre of raw materials, but also through every touch point of the consumer journey, including the packaging.

Sustainability

At Stoelzle we understand the importance of sustainability and waste reduction. Glass packaging, as an infinitely recyclable packaging material with no loss of quality, already meets many sustainability requirements. However, we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of glass packaging by reducing the weight of our items. We have already effectively reduced the weight of certain standard items and are actively investigating weight reduction strategies across our product range.
