02 Oct 2023 --- Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company (HBC) has invested €12 million (US$12.7 million) in a new high-speed returnable glass bottling line at its plant in Edelstal, Austria. The investment was supported by a €4 million (US$4.2 million) grant from the Austrian government as part of its fund for beverage companies and retailers to enable a circular economy for packaging. The new glass bottling line will produce 400 mL returnable and resealable glass bottles for the Austrian market. It is said to be more water and energy-efficient than previous lines and is a first across Coca-Cola HBC’s 29 markets.
