The KB Bottle

Innovative | Sustainable | Recyclable

KB Bottles are the world’s first and only commercially available wine, spirits, olive oil, and non-carbonated beverages bottle, made from recycled paperboard.

KB Bottles are made from 100% recycled paperboard and include a food grade pouch inside. These bottles are five times lighter than glass, have six times lower carbon footprint, and provides 360-degrees of branding space. This innovative packaging technology offers a disruptive and revolutionary alternative to glass.

Kinsbrae is proud to have purchased the world’s first Frugal Bottle Assembly Machine (FBAM-1) from British sustainable packaging firm, Frugalpac. The FBAM-1 can produce more than 2.5 million paper bottles per year. This allows us to help several North American companies move to more sustainable packaging and reduce their carbon footprint, by switching to the KB Bottle.

The KB Bottle offers several notable benefits, giving your company even more reasons to make the change to paper packaging.
