Injection stretch blow molded of polyethylene terephthalate, the new bottles are supplied by Constar UK (Wantage, Oxon, England). The bottles sell singly for about 40 pence (U.S. 61¢) in convenience store-style outlets, or in supermarkets for about £1.30 (U.S.$1.97) per six-count paperboard carrier.
“Constar UK’s innovative approach to design has resulted in the development of a unique bottle, ideally placed for the children’s market,” says Britvic brand marketer Jane McEvoy. “The bottles have a fun feel and are practical at the same time.”
