20 Mar 2023 --- Vinventions has secured a sales agreement with climate tech packaging business Packamama to expand the sale and distribution of Packamama’s eco-flat wine bottles in France. “By partnering with Packamama, we can help wineries suffering from the shortage of glass bottles by proposing a PET bottle alternative. Moreover, the eco-flat bottle made from 100% recycled PET (rPET) plastic will help wineries improve their CO2 footprint,” says Stéphane Vidal, head of innovation at Vinventions. Packamama aims to tackle the wine industry’s carbon footprint through its space-saving eco-glass bottles, which the business says allow up to 91% more wine on a pallet in transport and warehousing. The standard 75 mL bottles are made of rPET, retaining glass-like visual properties and weigh 63 g each – 87% lighter than traditional bottles – further reducing carbon footprint.
