Blockbuster Beer Introduces a New Sleeved Packaging for Bottles to Enhance the Look and Experience for the Customers

American Brew Crafts Pvt. Ltd. (ABCL), a modern-day independent brewing company making the highest quality products with the best ingredientsintroduced a fresh new look, for the flagship Blockbuster beer. The new attractive packaging of the bottle in a sleeve comes in vibrant colours and designs. The new sleeve is made from a high-quality resin that enhances the look and feel, is easy to hold for customers and beer will have protection from sunlight and retain the flavour. Even if the bottle falls or slips breakage will not be chattered around, therefore providing extra protection to the bottles during transportation and storage. Sleeves can be recycled to generate zero waste. The sleeves help retain the beverage quality and hold the label in place even in chilled bottles thereby enhancing the customer’s experience with Blockbuster.

Blockbuster is setting up a complete ecosystem to ensure the collection and recycling of old bottles. The manufacturing of new bottles consumes significantly higher energy when compared with recycling old bottles, therefore recycling bottles is more environmentally friendly. Apart from the new packaging the company has implemented a number of initiatives to reduce its environmental impact, including using renewable energy sources in its brewing process. ETP Water is treated and the same is utilized for plants – Coconuts and Raw Banana plants are grown with ETP Water. Other by-products like cartons, bags, etc. are recycled to have net zero waste. They also try to source all ingredients locally and counsel the communities to improve the localities.

Benefits of Sleeve Packaging

Sleeved packaging for bottles can be a more eco-friendly option than traditional packaging for several reasons. Here are some ways in which sleeved packaging can be helpful to the environment:

• Reduced material use: Sleeved packaging can help reduce the amount of material used in packaging. The sleeve itself is made from a thinner material than a full wrap label, and the bottle inside the sleeve can also be made from lighter-weight materials.

• Recyclability: Sleeved packaging is often made from recyclable materials, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polypropylene (PP).

• Reduced carbon footprint: The materials used in sleeved packaging are often less carbon-intensive to produce than traditional packaging materials.

• Improved cooling properties: Sleeved packaging can help keep the contents of the bottle cooler for longer.
