A key decision for Warsteiner was how to present its limited edition product for such an important milestone in the history of one of Germany’s most iconic brands, so they turned to a trusted packaging suppliers, Ardagh Group.

In 2014 Ardagh developed an exciting range of aluminium bottles - the Warsteiner Art Collection. These bottles were created at the state-of-the-art printing facility in Beaurepaire, France. The resulting launch attracted many new younger customers from around the world to the Warsteiner brand and also lead to the company winning several international packaging design awards.
