SUSTAINABLE OPTIMISATIONS

The ALPLA Eco-Bottle strikes a delicate balance between climate consciousness and functionality. While lightweighting is essential for sustainability, it cannot compromise the recyclability of the bottles. ALPLA ensures that their bottles remain compatible with existing recycling streams, avoiding contamination and promoting circular economy practices. The use of different colours for the caps has been successfully eliminated from the production, which enhances the recyclability of the product. Furthermore, up to 30% of recycled PE can be added to the whole packaging system, which makes it even more sustainable and suitable for upcoming production regulations in terms of the use of recycled material.

INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT

Creating the ALPLA Eco-Bottle involved collaboration among multiple experts. Their collective efforts resulted in a product that seamlessly integrates economic savings, climate benefits and practical functionality. By prioritising innovation, ALPLA sets a precedent for the industry, encouraging others to follow suit.
