Travel & Hotels
For Airlines, Train, Ferry and coach operators and Hotels, convenience, space / weight efficiency and cost are all incredibly important. Luckily, ecoSIP delivers on all fronts!
Travel
Size and weight are important for all modes of transport as space is limited, and efficiency is critical, however they’re at their most important for aviation.
On a flight from London to San Francisco, 10kg of weight would be responsible for an additional 4.4 litres of fuel use and 11kg of CO2 emissions, so every kilo counts.
ecoSIP is the lightest, smallest packaging possible for drinks.
A typical Atlas tray can carry around 22 x 187ml PET wine bottles, with the packaging weighing around 600grams. Moving to 125ml ecoSIP pouches would allow 60 units per tray, increasing the number of units by 170% and the volume of wine by >80%, while reducing the packaging weight by 75%.
The 125ml serve is a useful improvement for encouraging responsible drinking on board. And, protecting even the finest of beverages (we’ve packed up wines all the way up to 1st growth Bordeaux and Grand Cru Burgundies), they improve your fuel efficiency, decrease waste and allow an increased range, from Economy to First Class or private charter flights where space is even more precious.
Hotels & Lodging
While space is limited in aviation, it’s at just as much of a premium in a hotel room mini bar. Not many beverages fit in small-format fridges, courtesy of the space inefficiency of bottles.
Tampering is a huge problem with bottles too. If you have a screw cap, customers can drink the drink, refill it with water, and return it to the mini bar only to be discovered weeks later.
This leads to both loss of revenue and poor guest experiences for the guest who pours themselves a glass of wine, only to find it’s water.
ecoSIP lets you increase your range, fit more units in each room and completely eliminates the risk of tampering, while also reducing your recycling costs.
