O-I ULTRA Lightweighting
The O-I Glass video (https://youtu.be/jajQKkzcD_I) opening the lid on the developing MAGMA technologies also mentioned a new initiative for lightweighting. ULTRA offers up to 30% savings on the weight of a typical container made in an O-I “heritage” glass manufacturing site.
Research and development trials are taking place in Colombia. ULTRA will improve efficiencies, reduce carbon footprint while maintaining the properties of the containers manufactured.
