In response to challenges related to recycled materials, the product series of 100% rPET bottles continues to expand, with Apra, Coca-Cola, and Jack Daniel launching new 100% rPET bottles respectively. In addition, Master Kong has cooperated with Veolia Huafei, Umbrella Technology, etc., and the rPET environmentally friendly basketball court made of recycled beverage bottles has been put into use at Nanjing Black Mamba Basketball Park.
Apra and TÖNISSTEINER have developed a reusable bottle made entirely from rPET. The 1-liter mineral water bottle reduces carbon emissions, offers transport advantages and offers traceability. TÖNISSTEINER and Apra are building optimal bottle-to-bottle recycling solutions and ensuring their own library of high-quality, reusable rPET bottles.
Coca-Cola launches 100% recycled plastic bottles in India, including 250ml and 750ml bottles. The bottle is printed with the words “Recycle Me Once” and “100% Recycled PET Bottle”. It is produced by Moon Beverages Ltd. and SLMG Beverages Ltd. and is made of 100% food-grade rPET, excluding the cap and label. The move aims to increase consumer awareness of recycling. Earlier, Coca-Cola India launched a one-liter 100% recyclable bottle for the Kinley brand. The Indian government has approved the use of rPET in food packaging and has formulated regulations and standards to promote the application of recycled materials in food and beverage packaging. In addition, in December 2022, Coca-Cola Bangladesh also launched 100% rPET bottles. Coca-Cola currently provides 100% recyclable plastic bottles in more than 40 markets, and its goal is to achieve a “world without waste” by 2030, that is, to produce plastic bottles with 50% recycled content.
In addition, Brown-Forman has launched a new Jack Daniel brand of 100% rPET 50ml bottle of whiskey, which is designed for use in aircraft cabins and replaces the previous 15% rPET content plastic bottle. It is expected to reduce the use of virgin plastic by 220 tons and reduce Greenhouse gas emissions account for 33%.
Recently, Master Kong Group built an rPET environmentally friendly basketball court made of recycled beverage bottles in Nanjing. The site used 1,750 empty 500ml ice tea drink bottles to find a recycling method for rPET waste. At the same time, Master Kong launched its first label-free beverage and carbon-neutral tea drink, and launched carbon footprint accounting standards and carbon-neutral evaluation standards with professional organizations.
