Austin Creative Water now has Oxo-Biodegradable Plastic Bottles Introduced by

Planet Green Bottle Corporation

Reverte is a registered trademark of Wells Plastics Ltd. that has been specifically developed as an additive for PET plastic bottles that greatly enhances degradability of the bottles while keeping its clarity and tinsel strength. Specialized industrial composting facilities are not required for oxo-biodegradable bottles that utilize the Reverte technology, as in the case with PLA (cornstarch-based) bottles.

 

Reverte has been formulated for a two-year shelf life; the degradation process is initiated by UV light, heat and moisture. Plastic bottles utilizing Reverte will degrade in landfills, ditches, rivers and oceans. Equally as important, Reverte enhanced bottles are recyclable and fully compatible with Reverte municipal collection and recycling systems with no contamination to the recycling stream. As always, it is recommended that recycling be the first course of action.

 

Today, approximately 60 billion PET plastic beverage bottles are discarded annually in the United States, according to industry sources. “Ten years ago, if those bottles had contained Reverte oxo-biodegradable technology, most of the bottles will have been degraded. “Industry sources tell us only about 24% of all PET bottles are recycled leaving 77% to go landfills or just tossed out. That is why it is so important that the bottled water and beverage industry moves quickly to adopt Reverte technology in their oxo-biodegradable bottles and why Austin Creative Water has been looking for a bottler who has gotten involved with this technology early.”

 

Together we can all help our environment by recycling plastic bottles.  Our Bottler now has the molds to produce these biodegradable bottles, fill them with premium drinking water, and Austin Creative Water can design your custom label right here in Austin, Texas.
