CONSUMERS PREFER GLASS PACKAGING BY 82%

Consumers prefer glass packaging second to none according to an independent survey conducted by Newton Research of Norman Oklahoma. Out of 753 randomly selected consumers, 78% choose glass packaging to maintain the purity of a product while 82% believe that glass packaging is the best choice overall.

Glass is also the preferred packaging for beer (75%) and wine (96%) as well.

Another survey conducted by Beverage Package Survey in July confirmed that 98% out of the 100 respondents said they prefer their beer in glass bottles, especially in comparison to plastic bottles. Ultimately, 85% said drinking beer from plastic bottles was less desirable than glass – 37% claimed that beer did not stay cold in plastic and 40% said the beer did not taste as good.
