Sustainable Initiative
Coca-Cola Oceania and Coca-Cola Amatil have announced a significant step forward towards sustainability—by the end of this year, all of their plastic bottles smaller than one litre, and all water bottles will be made from entirely recycled plastic in New Zealand. This equates to just over half of the plastic bottles produced by Coca-Cola Amatil in New Zealand. As well as an increase in the reuse of the plastic, it also means the elimination of around 2900 tonnes of new plastic per year that would’ve been ordered in otherwise.
As a part of Coca-Cola’s global commitment to ‘a World Without Waste’, an ambitious movement to collect and recycle the equivalent of every bottle or can Coca-Cola sells globally by 2030. Atop of this, Coca-Cola aims to make all of its consumer packaging 100 percent recyclable globally by 2025.
Coca-Cola has a vision of a circular plastics economy. Ultimately, consumers would purchase the product, the discarded bottles would be collected and recycled, they would be transformed into preforms, and then manufactured into bottles once more—a full circle.
