Packaging Design
Our priority is to offer a diverse portfolio of containers that protect consumer health and preserve product integrity. Additionally, our members are working to reduce their use of virgin materials, most notably virgin plastic, through package design, light-weighting and use of recycled content.

Packaging Recovery
We support comprehensive recycling at curbside, drop-off, large public venues and multi-family dwellings to recover our containers. We also support key investments in recycling infrastructure including recycling bins, materials recovery facilities and consumer education.

Partnerships
We support our industry’s national initiative Every Bottle Back. We recognize the value of
partnerships with state and local governments, waste haulers, processors, NGO’s and our customers to drive higher recovery rates for our containers.

Values
Our containers are made to be remade. They are a valuable commodity, and our policies and practices reflect this.
Every Bottle Back
Our 100% Recyclable Bottles are Made to be Remade. And We Want Every Bottle Back.
America’s leading beverage companies are working together to reduce our industry’s plastic footprint through our new Every Bottle Back initiative. We’re using less new plastic and investing in efforts to get our bottles back so we can remake them into new ones.
Commitment & Strategy
We’re working together to ensure our plastic bottles become new bottles, and they don’t end up in our lakes, rivers or beaches.
