Green Apple Award recognises environmental breakthrough at O-I Alloa
O-I Alloa has won Gold in the Scottish Green Apple Awards in recognition of its environmental efforts. The award was presented jointly to O-I and Edrington for the two companies’ achievement in creating the lightest ever embossed glass bottle for a premium Scotch whisky. It was accepted by Scott Gibb, Scottish Sales Manager for O-I and Mike Rose, Technical Services Director at Edrington at Edinburgh Castle. The 340g development for The Famous Grouse was successfully produced at Alloa and is a breakthrough in the industry, which typically sees premium bottles weighing 400g and above.
