Handcrafted Moulds

Our handcrafted moulds will determine the unique shape your bottle takes. There is truly no limit to our experts ingenuity and the distinctively shaped glass bottles they can curate. Here at Verallia, we are constantly forging a creative path to build distinctive, eccentric, and unforgettable glass packaging. We’ve manifested mountains, snow globes, easter eggs and footballs, the sky is truly the limit.

Embossing / Debossing

Embossing and debossing brings artistry to your bottle. Whether you are looking to stamp text of your heritage on the neck of the bottle or craft botanical pattern designs rising from the base, our combination of craftsmanship and technologies can elevate your bottle.

Texture

For an indulgent experience that incorporates tactility consider blending textures into your glass bottle. Emulate an array of elements to signify what lies within or reflect your brands wider story. You could build textures that replicate honeycomb to signify the sweetness within or capture textured waves to signal the source of your spirit brand.

Colour

Tailor your glass packaging to your brand hues. Our sophisticated colour technology transforms your bottle and gives it that finishing flair.

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!
