Coca-Cola Is Launching Tests of the First Bottle Made of... Paper. Its Functionality Is to Be Evaluated by Hungarians
One of the largest fizzy drinks manufacturers is carrying out tests of eco-friendly bottles. They are soon to reach the first customers.
An ecological Coca-Cola bottle
It was last year when we first heard about the paper Coke bottle. The company has just released the functional prototype. Although it still has a thin layer of plastic, it's mostly made of paper. The cap and the most inner part of the bottle are made of plastic. In fact, Coca-Cola's objective is to develop packaging that is 100% recyclable. They will be used to store not only drinks, but also cosmetics.
The research has been done by Paboco, a Dannish company specializing if eco-friendly packaging
In the second quarter of 2021 the first 2000 bottles are to reach the customers. The bottle will be tested by Hunbgarians and they will contain a drink called Adez. The company promises that by 2030 it will have completely removed non-recyclable materials and it will rely solely on the recyclable ones. Many other major corporations have got similar goals.
The company has released a video summing up the works on the prototype.
Do you think this solution will catch on?
