It may look like glass, but packaging provider Sidel claims it’s all PET. Sidel has launched what it calls the world’s first-ever pasteurizable lightweight PET bottle for beer with a non-petaloid base. The bottle also supports a crown cap, which together with the non-petaloid base, gives the bottle the appearance of glass, but with all the advantages of PET. This includes the lightweight and increased mechanical properties of PET. The new bottle weighs about 28 grams, which is up to 86 percent less than an average equivalent glass bottle, according to Sidel data.
