New Zealand Prime Minister John Key today officially unveiled O-I New Zealand's $85 million glass production cellar to showcase the country's beer and wine bottle industries. The newly invented pit furnace can reduce carbon emissions, reduce waste pollution to the environment, and shorten the delivery time and improve the quality, which will be recognized by customers.
Beginning in 1922, New Zealand O-I Company, as the country's glass bottle manufacturer, produced and supplied a large number of glass bottles for the local food and beverage industry. The Auckland factory in New Zealand has added 38 jobs, and the factory will expand its industrial output, aiming to produce 90,000 tons of glass bottles per year.
