Most people in the USA would probably have missed this bit of news about Coca-Cola’s new aluminium bottles. First – because the news articles used the British spelling – aluminium. And second, because the USA does not seem to be a priority when it comes to news about new aluminum bottles launched in Europe. This […]
I’m not exactly sure when this Diet Coke aluminum bottle designed by Jean Paul Gaultier was launched. But I must admit this is the prettiest aluminum bottle I’ve seen ever. The aluminum bottle collection is themed, “Night & Day” and has the familiar Gaultier female form which is in fact how the original Coca Cola […]
Coors is releasing a new aluminum bottle for the summer – the Coors Light Silver Bullet – with an all silver design. They have an interesting promotion to hype their new 1-pint aluminum bottle. They hired a couple of artists to make 3-D street paintings of the new bottle. The optical illusion occurs when passers-by […]
Free beer? In an aluminum bottle? Delivered to you? That’s exactly what the folks at Carling are offering for the Big Jubilee Lunch on June 3 in England. I guess June 3 was when Queen Elizabeth was crowned. As the official beer for the Jubilee, Carling says you can go on the Carling website and […]
I’ll admit that I really like the recent aluminum bottle designs of Coca-Cola. I’ve blogged in the past about their designer aluminum bottles by Karl Lagerfeld and other designers.

I’ve said a few times that I’ve never quite understood why beverage companies use blue to decorate their aluminum bottles. But the Pepsi Twist aluminum bottle has bright yellow text which contrasts very nicely with the blue background. […]
So we have yet another aluminum bottle for the fast growing craft beer segment. Chaka beer is the result of a collaboration between Colorado-based Oskar Blues Brewery and Indiana-based Sun King Brewery . It is supposedly the first craft beer to be packaged in the Alumi-Tek® re-sealable pint bottle . As expected, it will be […]
Heineken has done it again. They’ve launched an aluminum beer bottle that glows in the dark. They call it their STR bottle and it has UV-sensitive ink applied to the aluminum bottle which becomes visible when exposed to black light. This is another wonderful example of packaging innovation using aluminum. As I wrote in my […]
We’re exhibiting at the 2012 World Perfumery Congress to be held in Connecticut in June. Aluminum bottles have long been recognized as superior packaging for preserving the volatile and expensive essences found in the most expensive perfumes. We should know. Our aluminum bottles are used to store those expensive essential oils used as primary ingredients […]
