The limited-edition vodka bottles are made with [recycled glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sapling-spirits-vodka) and feature labels that are made with ink that has been extracted from anti-LGBT and racists signage. This powerful packaging message is reinforced with the word "love" emblazoned in a variety of different languages across the entirety of the bottle to make it an international beacon of inclusive love. Chris Richards, Head of Marketing at Absolut, explained the new packaging, saying, "We’re proud to have placed the powerful message that love has no borders at the heart of Absolut’s iconic bottle. We’re also delighted to continue our support of the LGBT+ community, continuing our partnership with [Stonewall](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/call-it-a-night) as part of this campaign, but also by proudly showcasing a ‘Take Pride in Diversity’ medallion on the bottle. We know our annual Pride limited edition bottles are collectors’ item for many and with this limited edition, we hope to capture attention for this cause." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 74% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Social Good](https://www.trendhunter.com/socialgood) > [Activism](https://www.trendhunter.com/activism) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Inclusive Packaging:** Opportunities exist to create inclusive packaging designs that celebrate diversity and promote inclusion, such as using recycled materials and incorporating positive messaging. - **Sustainable Ink:** Creating packaging labels using ink made from recycled materials can be a disruptive innovation opportunity in the packaging industry. - **Socially Conscious Branding:** Brands that prioritize social causes and promote inclusive messaging through their packaging can engage consumers and foster brand loyalty. ### Where This Applies - **Alcohol:** The alcohol industry can use inclusive packaging designs to appeal to consumers who prioritize social causes and diversity. - **Packaging:** The packaging industry has an opportunity to create more sustainable and socially conscious packaging designs that reflect changing consumer preferences. - **Marketing:** Marketing firms can help brands develop socially conscious messaging and packaging designs that resonate with consumers and foster brand loyalty. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Uplifting Artistic Alcohol Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut-haring-artist-edition-bottle.md) - [Woven Vodka Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut.md) - [Music Festival Vodka Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut-tomorrowland.md) - [Custom Chinese Vodka Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-samuel-ross.md) - [Bespoke LGBTQ+-Celebrating Vodkas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/five-husbands.md) - [Custom Wave-Like Vodka Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ardagh.md) - [Adoration-Themed Gin Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-love-harris-gin.md) - [Paper-Based Vodka Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-based-bottles.md) - [Artsy Painting-Inspired Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolut-3.md)
