Irish Distillers has today announced the launch of a digital e-label system which aims to better inform consumers about the products they are consuming, as well as encourage responsible drinking.
The digital labelling initiative is beginning with a European pilot program across Jameson owner Pernod Ricard’s strategic international brands, including Jameson and Absolut in the Irish market, before being rolled out globally across all brands in Pernod Ricard’s portfolio by 2024.
This initiative aims to offer consumers a quick and easy way to access product and health information on packaging via a QR code.
As part of the pilot, bottles of Jameson and Absolut in Ireland will now carry a QR code on the back label which, once scanned with a smartphone, will redirect consumers directly to a platform where they will be able to access:
The list of ingredients and nutritional information, Information about the health risks associated with the consumption of alcohol, and where to find relevant information in their country.
This will feature alongside responsible drinking information, including the local low risk drinking guidelines specific to each country, as well as information about who should not drink alcohol and a link to a consumer information website.
