Rebbl is transitioning to 100 percent recycled and recyclable plastic bottles for its plant-based beverages. The company’s new Green Packaging Initiative aims to create a positive environmental impact through sustainable business practices. The new packaging converts used plastic bottles into new ones, which conserves resources, reduces landfill, and capitalizes on the energy already being used to make plastic products.
“By switching 20 million Rebbl bottles annually to 100 percent post-consumer recycled plastic, greenhouse gas emissions have the potential to be reduced by 922 tons of carbon dioxide. That’s roughly the equivalent environmental benefit that 1,086 acres of U.S. forests provide in one year,” said Michele Kessler, CEO of Rebbl, in a statement.
