New PEN bottles in Denmark

Danish Brewery Group (DBG) has launched its Royal Pilsner and Royal Classic beers in new refillable 38-cL bottles of polyethylene napthalate (PEN), made by Rexam Petainer in Lidköping, Sweden.

In 1999, Carlsberg launched a similar PEN bottle in Denmark when only refillable bottles were permitted for beer.

The new 36-g bottle is expected to yield six months of shelf life, says Niels Buchwald, R&D manager for DBG. The bottle design is unique to DBG, says Anneli Johansson of Rexam Petainer, and is a lighter-weight solution than other PEN refillable bottles.
