Their sustainability focus is clear: remove, reduce, reuse, recycle. They need to find innovative ways of doing more with less. That includes accelerating innovation to deliver drinks in new ways, like reusable packaging and smart dispensers. And it needs to happen across every part of the packaging journey. From the design of the packaging itself, to the way in which it’s made, used and treated after use. They are removing materials where they can and making sure all the packaging they do use is collected, recycled and reused in a low carbon circular system. They are redesigning and reimagining every aspect of how they deliver drinks, to be as resource efficient as possible. And ensure nothing is wasted. Less new materials. Less greenhouse gases. And less waste.
