Ardagh supplies bottles to Lenny Boy
Ardagh Group, Glass – North America, a business unit of Ardagh Group, has partnered with Lenny Boy Brewing Co. to introduce a new 14oz kombucha bottle, manufactured locally in North Carolina, U.S.
The partnership connects Charlotte’s Lenny Boy Brewing Co. with Ardagh’s Wilson, North Carolina, glass production facility, helping to keep the brewery’s promise to stay local and sustainable by reducing its environmental footprint.
The 14oz glass kombucha bottle for Lenny Boy Brewing Co. was designed by Ardagh and is manufactured in the U.S. using 100 percent and endlessly recyclable flint (clear) glass.
“Ardagh is pleased to expand its portfolio for the craft beverage industry and enjoys collaborating with brands like Lenny Boy Brewing Co. to create glass packaging that showcases and protects the flavour, freshness and integrity of our customers’ products,” said John T Shaddox, Chief Commercial Officer for Ardagh Group’s North American Glass division. “The 14oz kombucha bottle represents the perfect sustainable packaging solution for Lenny Boy Brewing Co.’s products.”
