Le Iconiche — Romano Vincenzo

Italian olive oil. Iconic glass.

Le Iconiche by Romano Vincenzo — four olive oil bottles with Sicilian folk art sublimation by ATIU

In the olive oil world, the bottle is often an afterthought — a standard shape, a paper label, a foregone conclusion. Romano Vincenzo challenged that assumption entirely.

The bottle as the primary design surface

Le Iconiche is an olive oil collection that treats the bottle as the primary design surface, turning each product into an object you want to display, not just use. No paper label. No sleeve. The glass itself carries the identity of the oil.

Vinitaly Design Awards

The collection earned a place on the Vinitaly Design Awards shortlist — proof that the olive oil industry is ready to rethink what a bottle can be. For a sector built on tradition, this is an act of boldness: letting the glass itself tell the story.

For a sector built on tradition, this is an act of boldness.

ATIU's role

Digital sublimation on olive oil bottle. Full-body decoration replacing traditional labelling. The entire surface becomes the brand — from neck to base, in one seamless pass.

Can sublimation replace paper labels on olive oil bottles?

Yes. Digital sublimation bonds the decoration directly to the glass, eliminating the need for paper labels. The result is a fully decorated bottle that resists moisture, oil residue and handling — common issues with traditional labels on olive oil bottles.

What is the Vinitaly Design Awards?

A recognition programme at Vinitaly, one of the world's largest wine and food exhibitions, that celebrates innovation in packaging design. Le Iconiche by Romano Vincenzo earned a shortlist position for its full-body sublimation approach.
