The future of wine bottling – recycled aluminium?!

Benefits of alu bottles:

  • - Geringes Gewicht - nur 85 g pro 750-ml-Alu-Flasche gegenüber 400 g für eine leichte Glasflasche
  • - Anstelle von 600 Flaschen kann man 900 Flaschen auf eine Europalette packen - das spart erhebliche Transportkosten
  • Does not break, and can be cooled faster
  • Has a second use as hiking or sports bottle
  • Can be recycled everywhere – high recycling quota already now in most countries
  • The melting point of aluminium is around 660°C vs around 1300°C for glass – in combination with the light weight, the energy saving is very high
  • In December 2025 BIBO RUNGE filled the first batch of aluminium bottles in Europe.
