It was created by Gruppo ASA (the first independent group in Italy in the field of General Line metal packaging and the fourth biggest group in Europe) for Luciano Benetton and his Family. The colors and the lettering were chosen in accordance with the lively and fresh style of the worldwide renowned fashion brand.

C.OL.O.M.BO. is an acronym which stands for Customized Olive Oil Metallic Bottle, a bottle-shaped metallic container, suitable for contact with food, in particular extra virgin olive oil. It won the bronze at the Cans of the world of the year in 2008 (innovation award) of the International packaging association."
