Is the drink box packaging used by Wateroos considered sustainable?
There are several elements that make the drink box package used for Wateroos one of the most environmentally responsible beverage packages on the market today: — Optimizing material, energy & cost. A sustainable package weighs as little as possible making it cost and energy efficient for manufacturing, shipping, and storing. A typical single-serve drink box provides a product-to-packaging ratio that is 96 percent beverage to only 4 percent packaging by weight vs. other beverage packaging which can weigh up to 20% of the total weight of the product. This package also uses far less energy to manufacture, fill, ship, and store products than virtually any comparable package. And because the packaging is lightweight, we can deliver more product per truck than competitive packages. This means fewer trucks, less fuel, lower cost and less pollution in transport. — Renewable resource. A sustainable package is made from a renewable resource that can be replenished and can last indefinitely.
