Thus was born in 2022, <em><strong>Italian Wine Can<\/strong><\/em>, or a new line of ready-to-drink canned products. These are products that embrace the term sustainability and the following reasons demonstrate this:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 For the material, since the can is 100% aluminum which is a material that can be recycled indefinitely, unlike plastic which degrades after being recycled a few times. Cans have an overall recycling rate of around 70%, much higher than glass (around 35% and plastic (9%).<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 For distribution, proven by the fact that the cans are light and easily stackable, saving 40% of space compared to glass. This means fewer vehicles on the road, less weight and, by extension, <strong>less fuel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 And finally for consumption. Being <strong>ready to drink<\/strong>, no glassware is needed, saving on glass production and recycling and, more importantly, no commercial glass washer that consumes water,<br \/>electricity and dumps toxic chemicals down the drain.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.italianwinecan.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/white-uva.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;white-uva&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;right&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHO WE AREV.S.T.
