Vetropack Group's Innovation Centre has been researching the process for almost ten years. With Echovai, it is now possible for the first time, thermally controlled tempering of glass bottles and economical production of lightweight glass bottles.<\/strong> In the pilot project with the Austrian Mohrenbrauerei, several million of the lightweight glass bottles were produced and tested. By using Echovai, the 0.33-litre returnable containers A weight saving of around 30 per cent compared to standard bottles is achieved<\/strong>. The lightweight glass bottle also proved to be significantly more abrasion-resistant than conventional returnable bottles. This pioneering achievement impressed the jury and Echovai was honoured with the Swiss Packaging Award in the \u201eTechnology\u201c category.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
