Ardagh Glass Packaging – North America has collaborated with Ste. Michelle Wine Estates to transition to ECO Series sustainable glass packaging options. This innovative series provides all the sustainability advantages of glass – a neutral and inert material that is infinitely recyclable – while maintaining high quality, enhancing customer appeal and lessening the overall impact on the environment.

“With a passion for sustainable practices and protecting the environment, Ardagh Glass Packaging values partnering with customers like Ste. Michelle Wine Estates,” said John T. Shaddox, Chief Commercial Officer for AGP – North America. “Utilizing our ECO Series bottles, which meet the highest standards in technical and aesthetic quality for glass packaging, we are pleased to help Ste. Michelle achieve its sustainability goals.”

Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, the largest winery in the Pacific Northwest and among the largest premium wine companies in the US, has long valued sustainability and protecting the environment.

“Making sustainable packaging choices, like selecting the ECO Series glass bottles for our portfolio of wines, is a highly impactful change we can make towards reducing our overall carbon emissions,” said Juan Muñoz-Oca, Ste. Michelle’s Chief Winemaker, who also leads the organization’s sustainability practice. “Not only does it make good business sense, but perhaps most importantly, it’s the right thing to do.”
