TAKEAWAYS Amidst a global surge in demand for organic wines, Doña Paula wanted to redefine sustainability in winemaking with its "Unique" line of organic wines. Against a backdrop of staggering statistics highlighting the exponential growth of the organic wine sector, Doña Paula’s commitment to environmental responsibility stood out as a guiding light. Doña Paula turned to UPM Raflatac. Their commitment to crafting label materials beyond fossils, and in this case, sourced entirely from recycled components aligned seamlessly with the winery's ethos. ENVI® is made from 100% Post Consumer Waste (PCW) materials and has an ultra

UPM Raflatac, a global supplier of innovative and sustainable labeling materials, is solving bottlenecks for designers with their recently published dynamic digital label material swatchbook for wine, sprits and beverage (WSB). This new tool allows designers to bring the designs to life by downloading high-definition images and utilizing the selected label material in their preferred design software. "The digital swatchbook was created with designers in mind. There are plenty of label materials available for wine, spirits and beverage, but the challenge is to find the right match to the packaging and to find it easy and fast.

Surveys consistently report that consumers increasingly prefer food & beverage products that are sourced, produced, and packaged sustainably. Sustainability issues factor into consumers’ purchase decisions and younger generations feel so strongly about these values that they will pay more for these products. Results also show that this trend is rising, even in the face of inflationary pressures. Examples of recent findings drive home the importance to consumers of wine producers supporting the circular economy and often reveal that this importance is growing: 55% of US consumers consider recycling and reusing products or packaging when making purchase decisions.[i] 48% said they pay attention to what the packaging is made of and how much of it is there.[ii] 86% of younger consumers (18-44) reported they were willing to pay more for products in sustainable packaging.[iii] 69% want to hear from pubs and bars about the work they’re doing to tackle plastic and packaging was

Wineries are looking for ways to stand out in a crowded marketplace, particularly among the younger generations. One of the top issues influencing consumer purchasing is sustainability because they are increasingly conscious of waste and environmental impact — and they are willing to pay more for sustainable products. While half of US alcohol drinkers in a recent IWSR survey said that a company’s sustainability or environmental initiatives positively influence their purchase decisions, over three-quarters of Generation Z and Millennial Americans in an IFIC survey believe they care more about the environmental impact of food choices than other generations. Wineries can make more sustainable choices along the entire grape-to-bottle chain, but labels are often an afterthought or forgotten. Like all other environmental decisions, using more sustainable labels will be most effective if a winery also develops branding and marketing campaigns to share the news with its consumers.
