RESPONSIBILITY
100%
recyclable and using up to
79%
less energy to make in best practices, environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. Available in clear or opaque recycled polyethene terephthalate (“rPET”)[1]. Our eco-friendly rPET bottles reduce Greenhouse Gas (“GHG”) emissions by
71%
when compared to white virgin PET. All of our standard packaging is paper-free. By using our environmentally friendly bottles and caps, and eliminating paper from our packaging, we dramatically reduce GHG emissions and divert waste streams from landfills and our oceans.
