Introducing Vista by Verallia: A New Chapter in Sustainable Glass Packaging 

Environmental pressures, shifting consumer expectations and evolving regulations are driving brands to embrace more sustainable packaging solutions. Glass remains the ideal choice for spirits, renowned for its quality, purity and luxurious appeal. But today’s consumers are looking for more – a commitment to sustainability and ethical practices that align with their values. 

At Verallia, we’ve been at the forefront of glass innovation for over a century. As pioneers in the packaging industry, we are experts in blending sustainability with design excellence, delivering bottles that push boundaries and elevate brands. With continuous investment in cutting-edge technology, we remain committed to reimagining glass for a sustainable future.  

Vista by Verallia: The Latest in Sustainable Glass

Driven by innovation, we have developed Vista by Verallia – our most advanced sustainable glass packaging solution yet. 

Inspired by today’s conscious consumer and driven by our commitment to sustainability, Vista gives spirit brands the creative freedom to express their story through glass, with sustainability at the core. 

Crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) glass, Vista by Verallia sets a new standard in sustainable packaging. 

How Recycled Glass Can Shape a Greener Future

  1. Bespoke Packaging Made Greener: Vista by Verallia gives brands a competitive edge with sustainable packaging that commands attention. It offers the flexibility to create bespoke, story-driven designs that captivate consumers, with the same quality premium look and feel, comprised of entirely recycled glass.  
  2. Utilise Less Raw Materials: Using PCR glass means our glassmakers can expertly craft your bottle without the need for raw materials, enabling us to conserve our natural resources. Recycling one ton of cullet helps conserve 1.2 tonnes of virgin raw materials.
  3. Sustainable Manufacturing: By manufacturing packaging with PCR glass, we significantly reduce the energy generated in manufacturing. This is a result of recycled glass having a lower melting point, this consumes 40% less energy than producing virgin glass. It also emits less greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide, as well as using less water in production.  

Sustainable Packaging for a Yorkshire Distillery

One of Yorkshire’s most well-known spirit brands, York Gin, has made history as the first gin to adopt 100% recycled UK made glass into their bottle.  

Steeped in a city of heritage and history, they are committed to a sustainable future. Powered by green energy, operating plastic free, and responsibly disposing of their waste, York Gin are an ethical distillery, supporting local causes. 

Taking the next step to responsible production, they partnered with Verallia to reimagine their distinctive packaging in 100% recycled PCR glass.York Gin Bottle in 100% recycled glass bottle, Vista by Verallia

‘We’re incredibly proud to be partnering with Verallia on this project. Our motto may be ‘History in the Tasting’, but we believe this bottle represents the future “As York’s first legal distillery, we craft spirits inspired by our city’s 2,000-year history. So using glass that has lived previous lives gives each of our bottles its own character and story.’ – York Gin 

Transitioning from extra white flint, produced solely from virgin glass, to Vista, crafted entirely from recycled glass, York Gin have been able to substantially decrease their environmental footprint.   

York Gin transitioned to this new more sustainable glass type whilst staying in its bespoke glass bottle shape which was designed by Verallia UK. The square bottle’s walls replicate the world-renowned walls that surround York, the brands home.  This is accompanied by their brand name, which is embossed at the base of the bottle. 

 We are proud of the innovation and craftsmanship that drove the success of this project, steeping our sustainable partnership in history.  

The Future is Green

Vista by Verallia is a testament to our commitment to delivering accessible, sustainable packaging solutions. Partnering with Verallia means you gain start-to-finish guidance, flexibility, and the expertise to implement trailblazing glass packaging that makes a real impact. 

As consumers increasingly expect transparency, accountability, and action from the brands they trust, Vista by Verallia empowers you to meet these expectations with confidence. Crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled glass, Vista is a clear step forward in responsible packaging. 

We’re proud to lead the way with this latest innovation and we look forward to pushing the boundaries of what sustainable glass can achieve.

Boldly powered by women, beautifully made for the future.

Nordic distillers @Feddie_Ocean_Distillery are breaking boundaries as a fully women-led whisky. To showcase their high-quality spirit, we set out to craft a bottle that embodied elegance, heritage, and sustainability, with no compromise on luxury.

In collaboration with the talented team at @wearecontagiouswe created a bespoke glass bottle that balances elegance with a premium, contemporary feel.

The tall, slender silhouette is elevated by thoughtful details: 521 embossed lines representing each resident of Fedje, the Nordic Island where the distillery was born, and 750 dots, each symbolising an investor who supported the distillery at the time of production.

We worked to sustainably craft this glass packaging to align with the brand’s ethos. The bottle’s weight was reduced from a traditional 700g to just 450g,️ as well as being crafted from 58% post-consumer recycled glass! ♻️

The result is a beautifully crafted bottle that balances premium design with environmental responsibility. One that resonated instantly with consumers, selling out in its first week.

Happy International Whisky Day! 🥃

A day to celebrate the craft of distilling one of the world’s most beloved spirits. Whisky has truly carved a place for itself as a staple in the spirit sector. The base of iconic cocktails, a strong contender when drank alone, this spirit is one of the greats.

With a strong Yorkshire heritage @WhittakersDistillery creates high-quality, artisanal whisky, bottling the abundant landscape found in the region. They’ve created the first ever single malt produced in the Yorkshire Dales.

For their unique, quality spirit, they partnered with us to deliver their high-end glass packaging. A classic shape, beautifully showcasing their unique whisky. The bottle features the emblem, ‘W’ embossed on the neck, as well as ‘Whittaker’ embossed around the base of the bottle.

Celebrating an exquisite spirit, and a Yorkshire icon, cheers to International Whisky Day! 🥃
