Case Study Highlight

Breaking the Boundaries of Brandy with Burnt Faith

It was important to Burnt Faith that their design not only reflected the historic traditionalist of cognac but also showed their revolutionarily British take on the French spirit. With their want for a sustainable yet bespoke design, Verallia was their ideal partner.

Glass with a twist for Wireworks Whisky

From the start distillery owners Claire & Max Vaughan had a vision that the brand, bottle and packaging had to reflect the Wireworks history and tell the story in a contemporary way. It had to be a sustainable solution that was durable, made in England, sourced locally, post-ready, practical and re-usable, but beautiful – a potential pack for life from the outset – something you would want in your house – to share – to look at – to keep.

Sipello’s Story: Eccentric & Exquisite Glass

Handcrafted in the Surrey Hills, Sipello is a British Aperitif that marries a gooseberry-led blend of British ingredients such as rhubarb and chuckleberry with sustainably sourced botanicals from around the world.

With such an exquisite drink, he required the packaging to match. That’s where we stepped in.

From Hedgerows To High Shelves

Sloemotion Distillery was founded by Joff Curtoys almost by accident. Joff, an ecologist by training, was implementing a farm diversification initiative to improve wildlife habitats, which resulted in an abundance of sloes. This was the seed for an idea and so the business began, Sloemotion Gin was formed.

18th of November marks International Poitin Day.

Poitin is a traditional Irish spirit, typically distilled between 40%-70% ABV that dates back to 1st Century AD. Historically the spirit was outlawed in Ireland as a result of taxation in 1661, but more recently has had a revival, being legalised in 1997.

Poitin carries an abundance of Irish heritage, being made with native ingredients such as barley, potatoes, and oats. Today Poitin is quickly gaining popularity, as it’s exported across countries, telling its story across borders.

Embodying Irish craftsmanship, @DrinkMadMarchHare_ celebrates heritage in every bottle. They expertly produce smooth, authentic poitin, encompassed in a decadent glass bottle created by Verallia.

Today marks an artistry that is often described as ‘fiercely Irish’.

Happy International Poitin Day, sláinte!

We are winners! 🥇

Three of our decadent glass bottles were shortlisted for Glass Pack of the Year at the UK Packaging Awards.

We are proud to announce, that after dominating the category with three bottles shortlisted, Verallia are the winners of Glass Pack of the Year, for @secretgardendistillery's botanical gin bottle! 👏

The judges were complimentary of the use of recycled glass in this premium bottle, a sustainable alternative to traditional white flint. We are dedicated to sustainability, and this award recognises that our expertise can create packaging that exudes opulence whilst being sustainable.

We also received commendation on our ‘Classic Laddie’ bottle, created for @bruichladdich. Another excellent example of sustainability hand-in-hand with sophistication, as they opted for a 34.47 % reduced-weight bottle.

Well done to our talented team for crafting award-winning glass packaging that fuse sustainability and style!

Studies have shown that the No-Lo market is certainly on the rise as consumers prioritise moderation and health, with sales almost doubling in 2023. This season, football fans were embracing non-alcoholic alternatives of well-known favourites for the latest UEFA championship.

More and more brands continue to add non-alcoholic alternatives to their ranges, aligning with this shift in the industry.

Like great artists sign their masterpieces, every bottle produced by Verallia UK is stamped with our signature code.

We take pride in the incredible work we do. Our code reflects the time and dedication placed into creating premium glass packaging.

An artist’s signature often signifies the completion of a piece, similarly a Verallia stamp signifies top-quality production, a high-calibre finish, and a distinctive glass bottle.

You can identify our bottles with our distinct punt marks “VUKG” and “VUKL” which mark Verallia UK Knottingley and Verallia UK Leeds – marked on the base of the bottle.

Keep an eye out for our Verallia code!
