S.Pellegrino is releasing a new range of fruit flavoured sparkling waters in Australia, made from 100 per cent natural ingredients and no artificial colours.

It is the first time fruit flavours have been specially crafted in S.Pellegrino’s signature sparkling water, and aims to add a fresh touch to casual dining occasions.

The S.Pellegrino Essenza range is presented in a sleek can and has three flavours – lemon and lemon zest, tangerine and wild strawberry, and dark morello cherry and pomegranate.

Each flavour is created to be paired with particular dishes, with the lemon variety working well with fish and salads, while tangerine and wild strawberry is suited for white meats and tomato pasta, and the cherry and pomegranate best for red meats and chocolate desserts.

The new S.Pellegrino Essenza range will be available in cafes and selected independent retailers in eight-packs for RRP $10.00.

Packaging News

Following the voluntary administration of Recycling Plastics Australia and confirmation that no Commonwealth packaging scheme will be introduced this term, voices from across the packaging and recycling value chain have delivered a blunt assessment of what is at stake.

Pact Group CEO and managing director Sanjay Dayal has advised the board that he intends to leave the company, with an executive search now under way for his successor.

With a Commonwealth packaging scheme ruled out this term, pressure is building ahead of the 18 September Environment Ministers Meeting, as industry, recyclers and environmental groups demand clarity on what meaningful national reform can still be delivered – and when.
