Reusable PET Plastic Bottles
10 reuse cycles. 2-year oxygen barrier. PPWR-compliant. Compatible with your existing crate-based or bagged returnable system.
The economics of switching to reusable beer bottles
At 10 reuse cycles per bottle, the cost per use drops well below one-way PET and glass. Add lighter return freight and PPWR readiness, and the commercial case is clear. For breweries in markets with established deposit return schemes, such as Germany, Scandinavia and the Netherlands, the infrastructure for a reusable loop is already in place. And with beer covered by PPWR reuse targets, refillable packaging is coming to every EU member state.

Goes where glass can’t
Built to go wherever beer is enjoyed.
Shatterproof and 85% lighter than glass, our reusable bottle is approved for stadiums, festivals and outdoor venues where glass is banned. That opens up taprooms, events and export markets traditional bottles can’t serve. Fill it as a one-way format, or integrate it into a reuse scheme.
Pubs and bars. Stacks, pours and returns like glass, without the breakages behind the bar.
Stadiums and sports venues. Shatterproof bottles approved for crowds, terraces and fan zones.
Festivals and outdoor events. Safe where glass is banned, so you can serve bottled beer, not just plastic cups.
Parks and picnics. Light to carry, safe on any surface and easy to bring back.
Export markets. Up to 85% lighter than glass, cutting freight costs on every long-distance shipment.
