Senior Communications Manager – FEVE
7.1.1 What Are The Benefits Of Glass Packaging Relative To Rival
Materials?
Visiongain: What are the benefits of glass packaging relative to rival materials?
Adeline Farrelly and Michael Delle Selve: The biggest strength of glass packaging is its inert
property. This means that glass packaging is able to 100% protect the products contained within
the packaging. All other rival materials struggle with the problem of creating inertness, with most
packaging materials requiring a plastic lining to protect the products against the external packaging
material. This is why glass packaging is used to protect all delicate products. The inert nature of
glass is also a key consideration if the product needs to sit in the packaging for long periods of
time, for example with wines and whiskeys.
An additional strength of glass packaging is the fact that glass is 100% recyclable. Glass
packaging is known as a ‘permanent material’ - glass packaging can be recycled indefinitely
without any loss in the quality of the glass, and glass retains its inert property throughout its
lifetime. Other packaging solutions are also 100% recyclable, for example aluminium and steel
cans, so glass packaging is not unique in this aspect. Plastic and paper packaging lose quality and
properties as they are recycled, resulting in a loss in material as the number of cycles increases.
Another consideration for glass packaging is the aesthetics of the material; glass is beautiful, and
is the most beautiful packaging material. Customers appreciate this beauty of glass, and as a
result glass packaging has value. Glass packaging provides shelf presence and the ability to show
off a product in all its glory, as well as attracted higher value.
And last not least, 74% of European consumers largely prefer and recommend glass as the
solution for their preferred food and drinks. They know food and drinks need the protection of its
container to preserve purity, because health is not only in the ingredients but also in the packaging
that preserves these ingredients. Consumers who believe glass is the best packaging option for
their preferred food and drinks support glass by joining the Friends of Glass community on
