ETERNITY Systems invests in the Cleaning of Glass Beer Bottles for Quebec Microbreweries

Glass Beer Bottles for Quebec Microbreweries

Last updated: 06 / 01 / 2025

A new chapter for reuse in the brewing industry hailed by the Association of Microbrasseries of Quebec.

ETERNITY Systems, a major player in packaging reuse, announces its expansion in Canada with a particular emphasis on microbreweries in Quebec.

Already present since 2017 with 2 sites in Longueuil and Guelph for the MT Systems activity dedicated to secondary and tertiary packaging, such as crates and pallets, for the agri-food industry, the French company ETERNITY Systems takes over from the recently declared bankrupt company “Le maître packaging durable” to now offer glass beer bottle washing services.

ETERNITY Systems, with nearly 30 years of experience in reusing containers, has already acquired machines from the bankrupt company, anticipating an initial volume of around one million bottles per year, with a planned higher capacity.

“We are in contact with the microbreweries. Our goal is to resume existing operations and continue to provide reliable and sustainable services,” explains Marc Antoine Vézina, director of the Longueuil plant for ETERNITY Systems.

The Association of MicroBrasseries of Quebec (AMBQ) welcomes this collaboration.

“This is good news for us, a new collaboration is being established with ETERNITY Systems, a company recognized worldwide for its expertise in reuse,” says Marie-Eve Myrand, the association’s general director.

For microbreweries, this represents a new partner in bottle cleaning, reducing costs associated with the accumulation of empty glass containers and ensuring a more efficient and economical transition. Although the trend towards cans has increased (the number of beers sold in bottles represents around 2% of production), some microbrewers, with the support ofETERNITY Systems, continue to use glass bottles.

Marie-Eve Myrand emphasizes: “Our wish is to secure the washing and supply of returnable washed bottles and with ETERNITY Systems, this is becoming a promising reality.”

THEAssociation des microbrasseries du Québec hopes that the government will perpetuate re-employment offers with companies like ETERNITY Systems, thus underlining the commitment to the environment.
