A recycled paper wine bottle has been launched which has a lower carbon and water footprint than glass or plastic alternatives, according to its backers.

The Frugal bottle, from British packaging company Frugalpac, is made from recycled paperboard with a recycled plastic food-grade liner to hold the wine or spirit.

The company said the bottle was lighter to transport, and has a carbon footprint from across its manufacture, use, transport and disposal that is up to 84% lower than a glass bottle and a third lower than a recycled plastic bottle.
