We want to make sure that the bottle in our consumer’s hand has been a bottle before and has the chance to be a bottle again. Australian innovation at Coca-Cola Amatil is making it happen.
Grinders Coffee's flagship store on Lygon Street in Carlton, Victoria has been a pioneer in coffee since it opened its doors back in 1962. Now, the team is attempting to break new ground, this time in sustainability.
An innovative use of electricity sub-metering in bottle production has cut Coca-Cola Amatil's annual carbon emissions by 67 tonnes, reduced its power bills by $14,000 and saved 50 tonnes of virgin plastics - or nearly two semi-trailer loads a year.
Our approach to sustainability underpins our performance as a business and we are constantly looking for ways to improve where we know we can make a difference. One of those areas is the environment.
