Vetropack has started to melt olive glass at its factory in St Prex in Switzerland. Most of the products it makes in olive are wine bottles, and 25% of its new range of improved wine bottles are available in the new colour. The firm says it is convinced that olive will gain wide acceptance among consumers in Switzerland. It says olive conveys elegance, grace, litheness, mystery, and attracts attention. Vetropack's new range of wine bottles has modern designs based on traditional ones, and comprises 105 versions in eight glass colours including white, green, olive and brown. (whole item)
