Tesco, UK, is using a screw cap bottle (weighing only 300 grams) produced by independent wine supplier Kingsland Wine and Spirits in the UK to fill its own brand - Australian non- vintage red wine Ningbo Wellcome Trading Co., Ltd. , https://www.huike-homecare.com
This lightweight bottle weighing only 300 grams uses 30% less glass than a regular wine bottle, significantly reducing the carbon footprint.
In fact, the standard weight of ordinary glass bottles is 420 grams, while the new lightweight glass bottles have the same impact resistance as standard bottles.
Kingsland supervisor Mike Ford said: "We believe that lightweight glass bottles will not only become the future of British wine filling, but will also become a guide for global wine packaging production."
