It also reinforces our environmental standpoint and enables our vendors to hit their sustainability targets and expectations for recyclability.

The elegantly wave shaped bottle is wrapped with a removable recyclable shrink sleeve, maintaining both appeal and recyclability simultaneously.

THE MOTHER OF PEARL ~ VODKA OF THE SEA BOTTLE SHRINK SLEEVES, HAVE BEEN DESIGNED WITH A DOUBLE PERFORATION THAT EASILY IDENTIFIED AND ALLOWS FOR THE SLEEVE TO BE REMOVED BY CONSUMERS.
