The bottles will be the first to use rPET from the Esterform Packaging facility, based in North Yorkshire. According to Britvic, the move will save 1,354 tonnes of virgin plastic per year.
Mark Tyne, Esterform’s managing director, said: “Our £20m project to produce 42,000 tonnes of recycled food grade PET could not have got off the ground without Britvic’s support and we look forward to working together to rollout recycled PET usage across Britvic’s portfolio.”
