As a brewery, we use a variety of packaging, ranging from returnable bottles and cans to kegs and crates. All our packaging is either reusable or recyclable. Sustainability is key in both their design and ongoing improvements. We're always looking for more environmentally friendly solutions and will never stop innovating.

“Society is becoming increasingly aware of sustainability and expects responsible products. That is why we continually ask ourselves how we can further reduce our environmental impact and keep innovating. We see it as a challenge to achieve the same results while increasingly using packaging made from recycled materials. This includes, for example, more recycled plastic, cardboard, and lighter-weight materials. In the years ahead, we will continue to strive for further improvements that lead to less waste, lower material consumption, and reduced transport costs. We want to keep investing in more efficient production, because that is the future of our company and, certainly, of our world!”

"Grolsch can be proud of its achievements in the field of sustainable and responsible business practices. By 2030, Grolsch aims to be a net-zero brewery, a goal with character! Working towards a sustainable future is not something you do alone; it requires close cooperation. In practice, this means that we are constantly exploring new opportunities for material efficiency, innovation and reuse of our packaging solutions. By designing packaging intelligently, it is possible to reduce logistics movements and thus contribute to a completely carbon-neutral brewery. Sustainability and innovation are inextricably linked and offer new opportunities for collaboration. Sustainable goals will be the driving force behind a new era of creative approaches to products and services. I look forward to continuing our collaboration to contribute to a sustainable world.” 
Berry | bpi packaging solutions
“As part of our Impact 2025 strategy, Berry is committed to helping our customers achieve and exceed their environmental and circularity goals. Sustainability is therefore central to our partnership with Grolsch. Driven by our shared values, we have implemented an approach focused on material reuse for the shrink film we supply to safely package beverages.
Our film contains 50% Sustane®, a high-quality recycled polymer. Waste is collected on-site and returned to Berry, where it is reprocessed into Sustane®, creating a closed-loop system for the film. We also collect all film cores and wedges used to secure the rolls on pallets for reuse, minimizing waste. Initiatives like these demonstrate the commitment of both companies to continue developing packaging solutions that make an effective contribution to the circular economy.”
