Beverage logistics specialists JF Hillebrand are finding increasing support for their VinLiner concept – an environmentally friendly option for the transport of wine. The wine is packed in regular containers lined with VinLiner, which protects liquid from temperature fluctuations, contamination risks and other harmful effects of long distance transport. And shipping the beverage in bulk results in significant savings in carbon emissions. One container of bulk wine can hold some 24 000 litres of wine. To ship the same quantity of bottled wine requires over two containers – doubling costs and carbon emissions.
