The product, which is marketed through Migros, is presented in an orange, waisted PET bottle with a content of 750ml. A white screw cap with a col- oured push/pull rounds off this iconic bottle. Commercial information and safety information are printed directly on the bottle. www.migros.ch 3-stage sports drink An optimally adjusted supply of nutrients is the promise made by albi GmbH with their 3-stage sports drink Enerjuice. The three drinks are spe- cially designed to cater for the requirements of the athlete before, during and after exercise. Vari- ous combinations of juices and additives support the functionality of the drinks. “Enerjuice“ is sold in PET bottles each containing 500ml and featuring a belly label with a carbon fibre look. The surface of the bottle is rough in tex- ture and fitted with stabilising grooves. A tamper-proof screw cap with a broad diameter makes it easier to drink straight out of the bottle. www.albi.de Premium juice Under the brand name “inno- cent“, the company of the same name from England markets carefully processed, unsweet- ened fruit juices in attractively- shaped PET bottles each con- taining 900ml. The bottle, made from a minimum of 25% recycled PET, has an embossed brand logo. The label field is also visu- ally offset by means of grooving.
