SPAR Austria sells drinks in eco-­friendly glass packaging

SPAR Austria is offering five of its best selling private label drinks in environmentally friendly packaging. The company has substituted the packaging of its 1-litre soda water, apple juice, orange juice, cola and herbal soda with reusable glass bottles. The glass packaging also allows consumers to combine the beverages in a six-pack crate. Shoppers need to pay a deposit of EUR 0.29 for each returnable bottle and EUR 3 for the crate.
