Method adopts 100% recycled coastal plastic bottles for product packaging

In World
June 28, 2024

Method, a manufacturer of eco-friendly cleaning and personal care products, has announced that all of its clear plastic bottles are now made from 100% recycled recovered coastal plastic.

This initiative is part of a partnership with SC Johnson and Plastic Bank.

In the US and Canada, consumers can purchase Method’s range of products, including gel handwash, foaming handwash, and dish soap, all packaged in these sustainable bottles.

Method’s commitment to using recycled recovered coastal plastic began in 2012 with limited-edition soap bottles and has since expanded across a wider range of its offerings.

SC Johnson’s collaboration with Plastic Bank since 2018 has led to the establishment of more than 550 plastic collection points in countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Brazil.

The partnership has successfully recovered the equivalent of three billion bottles to date.

Plastic Bank founder and CEO David Katz said: “Our partnership with SC Johnson is more than just a collaboration; it’s a rallying call to businesses worldwide to step up to end poverty and stop plastic pollution.

“We believe that collective, incremental efforts ignite sweeping transformations. No matter how big the global waste footprint is, every step we take together for the good of our people and the planet counts.

“It’s time for businesses to realise that authentic environmental and social impact can catalyse growth by genuinely winning the hearts of their customers.”

Method is also focused on designing products that reduce plastic consumption by offering an all-purpose cleaner and foaming handwash in reusable aluminium bottles, complemented by recyclable glass concentrate refills.

This has reportedly helped reduce plastic usage by 96% compared to traditional single-use bottles.

“Method adopts 100% recycled coastal plastic bottles for product packaging” was originally created and published by Packaging Gateway, a GlobalData owned brand.
