Sustainability

Committed to environmental responsibility through sustainable materials, eco-friendly practices, and innovative packaging solutions.

Our Commitment to the Environment

At PLASTIC BOTTLES LLC, we recognize our responsibility to minimize environmental impact while delivering high-quality packaging solutions. We're committed to sustainable practices throughout our operations—from material sourcing to manufacturing processes to end-of-life recyclability.

Our sustainability initiatives are guided by three core principles: reduce waste, use recyclable materials, and continuously improve our environmental performance. We partner with customers to develop packaging solutions that meet their sustainability goals while maintaining product quality and functionality.

Sustainable Product Options

We offer a range of environmentally responsible packaging materials and designs.

Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR)

Bottles manufactured with up to 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, reducing virgin material usage and supporting circular economy principles.

  • Available in PET and HDPE
  • 25%, 50%, or 100% PCR content
  • Same performance as virgin material

Ocean-Bound Plastic

Packaging made from plastic collected from coastal communities before it reaches the ocean, turning potential pollution into valuable products.

  • Certified ocean-bound material
  • Supports coastal communities
  • Reduces marine pollution

Bio-Based Materials

Plant-based plastics derived from renewable resources like sugarcane, reducing dependence on fossil fuels while maintaining recyclability.

  • Bio-PET from sugarcane
  • Reduces carbon footprint
  • Fully recyclable

Lightweighting

Optimized bottle designs that use less material without compromising performance, reducing plastic usage and transportation emissions.

  • Up to 20% material reduction
  • Lower shipping costs
  • Same structural integrity
Our Practices

Sustainable Manufacturing

Energy Efficiency

Our manufacturing facility utilizes energy-efficient equipment, LED lighting, and smart building systems to minimize energy consumption. We've reduced our energy usage by 25% since 2020 and continue to invest in efficiency improvements.

Zero Landfill Goal

We're working toward zero manufacturing waste to landfill. Production scrap is reground and recycled back into production. Non-recyclable materials are diverted to energy recovery facilities.

Water Conservation

Our closed-loop cooling systems minimize water consumption. We've implemented water recycling programs and regularly audit our processes to identify additional conservation opportunities.

Responsible Sourcing

We partner with suppliers who share our commitment to environmental responsibility. Our raw materials are sourced from manufacturers with documented sustainability programs and ethical practices.

Compliance

Environmental Standards

We adhere to rigorous environmental standards and regulations.

EPA Compliant

Full compliance with all applicable Environmental Protection Agency regulations and guidelines.

ISO 14001

Environmental management system certification demonstrating our commitment to environmental performance.

APR Design Guide

Packaging designed according to Association of Plastic Recyclers guidelines for recyclability.

SPC Member

Active member of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition, collaborating on industry-wide sustainability initiatives.

Recycling Made Easy

All our bottles are clearly marked with recycling codes to facilitate proper sorting and recycling. We design our packaging with recyclability in mind, avoiding materials and additives that could compromise the recycling stream.

1 PET Most widely recycled plastic
2 HDPE Highly recyclable, widely accepted
5 PP Increasingly accepted in recycling
