Our signature beer bottles

Europe’s favourite shapes, engineered for quality.

Vetropack’s beer portfolio features the shapes European consumers know and trust — long‑neck classics, Vichy icons, short‑neck favourites, and swing‑top specialties. Available in multiple colours and finishes, these bottles combine strong shelf appeal with reliable performance across one‑way and returnable systems.

Innovation and sustainability in beer glass

Vetropack leads in rightweighting returnable beer bottles—reducing glass weight while maintaining strength, durability, and pressure resistance. Lightweight beer bottles help breweries cut raw material use, transport emissions, and overall CO₂ impact, while preserving beer quality, brand presence, and reliable performance in reuse systems. 

Why Lightweighting Matters for Breweries 

Rightweighted beer bottles lower logistics weight across every loop, reducing transport costs and emissions. At the same time, high mechanical strength and abrasion resistance ensure long service life, stable filling line performance, and fewer bottle withdrawals—improving total cost of ownership and reuse efficiency. 

Rezon is Vetropack’s thermally strengthened lightweight glass technology, perfectly fitting demanding beer reuse systems. It combines the premium look and taste protection of glass with outstanding strength and sustainability performance—making it an ideal solution for reusable beer bottles. 

Rezon also enhances the consumer experience: lighter bottles are easier to handle, especially when carrying full beer crates, and during hot summer days they cool faster in the fridge than conventional glass bottles—delivering refreshment sooner. 

Why Breweries Choose Rezon 

• Up to 30% lighter than conventional reusable beer bottles, reducing transport emissions and costs while retaining premium glass appeal 

• More reuse cycles and high abrasion resistance, ensuring a long‑lasting appearance and fewer bottle losses 

• Proven strength, with independent testing confirming higher burst pressure, impact resistance, and reduced scuffing across multiple loops 

• Sustainability that pays off, combining lower weight and longer life to reduce CO₂ across the full lifecycle and support deposit‑return systems 

Built for Real Brewery Operations 

Rezon’s thermal tempering is tailored to each bottle design and production setup, delivering industrial‑grade strength at lower weight. Vetropack is commissioning an industrial‑scale Rezon machine in Pöchlarn (Austria) for 2026, enabling higher line speeds, stable processes, and advanced digital quality control for brewery‑scale production. 

Rezon is already established as a standard reusable beer bottle solution in Austria (0.33 L), recognized with multiple awards and successfully adopted by leading beverage brands—proven in real market conditions.
