What does Nestlé Waters do to increase recycling rates and reduce use of plastic?
Q: All of the bottles produced at our Sacramento plant will be 100 percent recyclable, and we encourage our customers to recycle every time they enjoy a bottle of water. In addition, Nestlé Waters North America leads the industry in reducing the amount of plastic used in beverage bottles through the development of our Eco-Shape® bottles which use 1/3 less plastic than typical beverage bottles. In addition, our new Re-Source® bottles have one of the highest recycled contents on the market, and we are working in collaboration with Whole Foods Market, Inc. and Waste Management, Inc. to promote recycling nationwide. For every container recycled as part of our program at Whole Foods, we donate 5 cents to Keep America Beautiful, a nonprofit known for its anti-litter campaigns. Proceeds will help support local recycling programs across the country. We also support local recycling programs across the country and look forward to partnering with the Sacramento community to increase recycling rat
