Is it time to reconsider glass packaging? After years of high-profile brand movements from glass to plastic, the editors at Package Design are seeing growing numbers of package design projects that are moving to glass.

They shared their insights on the new forms, functional features, and manufacturing efficiencies for glass packaging, and how these are translating into new package design trends.
