Ready-to-drink cocktail packaging solutions

Consumers thirst for alternative pack formats for their ready-to-drink cocktails. SIG's bag-in-box and carton packaging provide eco-conscious solutions that keep your RTDs safe and fresh from fill through end-use.

Innovative packaging for a new generation

The ready-to-drink cocktail market has seen tremendous growth over the last few years. Younger demographics are branching out from the beer and wine aisle and into elevated, mixed cocktails. Some of this is a result of health drivers, with cocktails–especially juice-based–perceived as better-for-you, and overall lower alcohol consumption. Younger millennials and older Gen-Z seem to agree on one thing… experimenting in the wide world of ready-to-drink cocktails can be a lot of fun! Brand owners around the world are breaking into this growing category with innovative packaging formats that open up new use occasions for consumers to enjoy their cocktails. Our environmentally-responsible packaging options include bag-in-box and carton.

Smart resource use

Compared to heavy glass bottles, bag-in-box and carton packaging offer significant carbon reduction from manufacturing through filled package distribution.

Alternative formats

Brands are responding to consumer and environmental pressures, launching ready-to-drink alcoholic products in bag-in-box and carton formats.
