Sustainable packaging company Berry Global<\/a> has partnered with Abel & Cole to launch sustainable bottles for its Club Zero Refillable Milk delivery service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Made with recyclable polypropylene (PP), the bottles can be reused up to 16 times before recycling.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new bottles are designed to be lighter than glass. Based on research conducted by Abel & Cole, this helps lower transport and greenhouse gas emissions when compared to heavier glass bottles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Abel & Cole\u2019s research also indicates that using the Club Zero bottles just four times halves the carbon footprint when compared to single-use milk bottles.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

This reuse reportedly surpasses the efficiency of glass bottles, which require more than 15 uses to achieve similar emissions savings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The initiative is expected to prevent approximately 450,000 single-use plastic milk bottles, or 23 tonnes of plastic, from ending up in landfills or being incinerated annually.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
