Visy Glass

Australia and New Zealand's largest manufacturer of recycled glass bottles and jars

Visy recycles 512,000 tonnes of glass containers, jars and bottles and remanufactures them into 3.2 billion bottles and jars each year. Some of our most loved food and beverage brands are packaged in our glass, confident in its premium quality and strong sustainability credentials. We've set ourselves a target to increase the average recycled glass content used by our glass manufacturing plants to 70%.

Our network of six glass remanufacturing facilities guarantees access to locally made glass. We're making major investments in glass recycling and remanufacturing in Laverton in Melbourne’s south-west and Yatala, south of Brisbane so we can increase the glass we recover and turn back into glass packaging. We’ve reached 64% recycled glass on average in our products in 2024.

Innovative and bespoke creations

We work with you to transform recycled glass packaging into distinctive brand statements. From internal and external embossing to unique shapes and designs, our customisation technology elevates your product's appeal and your brand's potential.
