Company Produces Clear Plastic Bottles

#. Company Produces Clear Plastic Bottles

 

Every day, Koreans use a massive number of PET bottles.

When they are done, they discard the plastic bottles in recycling bins.

However, there is an extra step before the bottles can be recycled.

The wrap-around labels on the bottles must be removed.

That is because the labels are made with a different material.

Unfortunately, many people neglect to do this or are unaware of its importance.

So, one Korean bottled water company recently came up with a solution.

The company began using clear plastic bottles without wrap-around labels.

Instead, it is printing the company logo directly onto the bottles.

They can be recycled just as they are.
