Eco-friendly wine packs

BOTA Box, an eco-friendly wine producer, will roll out four of its most popular varietals, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay, in Bota 500ml Tetra Paks.

The wine producer's Bota Box 3L – packaged in 100% recyclable, unbleached, post-consumer fibre printed with soy-based inks – is already the green choice for wine enthusiasts. The lightweight Bota Tetra Paks further those eco-friendly efforts by boasting a smaller carbon footprint than the equivalent amount of 750ml glass bottles.

Bota Box says the new alternative packaging and size reduce greenhouse gasses by 75% and waste by 50%, cut fuel emissions due to its lighter shipping weight, and are produced primarily from paper, which is a renewable resource.
