There’s a reason glass has been the preferred packaging choice for wine as long as it has. Glass won’t interact with what’s packaged inside, allowing wine to age and leave the taste just as the producer intended – and as the consumer expects.
Wine packaged in glass is authentic, honest and sustainable. Many wineries today already know this, and our goal at O-I is to remind the industry that not only is glass the preferred choice, but it's also local and readily available.
Yes, it's local! It's not traveling overseas or long distances, resulting in increased GHG emissions through transportation. Despite being a global brand, O-I has four of our glass manufacturing facilities on the west coast of the U.S. Three of those four locations are dedicated to wine packaging production.
Why LOCAL glass? Because it strengthens your sustainability efforts, reduces supply wait times and drives local economic growth. So CHOOSE LOCAL glass packaging from O-I today!
