Reusing Packaging Bottles and Cans is more important than ever for a greener tomorrow…

5/14/2022

What is the importance of reusing packaging bottles and cans? In addition to reducing the pollution caused by petroleum and chemical products, recycling plastic containers also helps create new jobs for people who work in the recycling facilities. In the United States, more than 80% of bottles and cans are recycled. Some of the most common types of bottles and cans include polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinyl chloride.

Reusing these containers allows the user to refill them at home or on the go. Refills can also be returned at any time. Improved washing and sorting technologies have made it possible to reuse packaging. Recyclables are also more valuable than ever with emerging markets. 
​
A recent study found that PET bottles can be recycled for up to 25 times before they become damaged. Reusing such bottles, reduces the use of virgin polymer and landfill space. Further, reused and recycled bottles and cans help decrease the need for new virgin polymer production, which reduces waste and energy consumption. The data from this study show that this practice can result in a 27 per cent reduction in emissions over the life cycle of these materials.

Reusable packaging can also allow companies to use new technology to improve their operations. The benefits of reusing packaging are numerous for consumers and businesses. By minimizing waste, businesses can develop more sustainable business models, increase customer satisfaction, and improve their bottom line.

Reusing packaging bottles and cans is a vital part of a sustainable and circular economy. It reduces material requirements per filling cycle. It reduces the cost of production and 'production toll' on the environment. So, it is essential to make reusable packaging. 

In addition, as a consumer, you can save money by reducing the amount of packaging you use. Reusable packaging reduces the number of plastics in the waste stream. These reusable items are the best way to protect the environment. They also reduce your carbon footprint. So, reuse your glass bottles and cans, and save the environment and the planet. Once you understand the far reaching consequence of your daily actions- with the choice of products you use and the 'environmental waste' it creates, then you can choose to take a greener approach. This is an important aspect of Conscious Living. 

In addition to reducing pollution, reusing plastic bottles and cans also help reduce plastic pricing. Choose reusable bottles and cans that have been manufactured to meet recognized quality standards. These will be more environmentally friendly and reduce the amount of waste in the environment. If you are looking for reusable packaging, look for brands that use recycled plastic. They will ensure the quality of the materials used in their packaging.

It is essential to reduce the amount of plastic in the environment. Reusable and recyclable items help save resources by reducing pollution. Glass and some types of plastic bottles are great for reusing. There are many buzz-words that we all hear on a daily basis… BUT few people understand the grave repercussions of not doing anything to save the environment. Many other believe that governments and corporations need to do the required actions and that at an individual level there is not much they can do to create any meaningful contribution. That is not the case at all. 

When it comes to green living, every small bit helps and each one of us can make small changes to how we approach our daily product choices and make significant contributions towards a Green Earth. Once you truly understand the advantages and disadvantages of reusing your recyclable containers, you can easily reuse and repurpose them for other use around your household. 

This is still a new space and so true collaboration between corporations for green sustainable growth is still not a norm. But, it would be very helpful if corporations would take this collaborated route. Then once a company has perfected a reusable packaging design then they could share it with others to help the greater environment at large. Such companies could either receive a small fee from the other companies or receive a special environmental credit from the government in the form of social recognition and tax savings.
​
Nature, mother earth, our planet is not just our residence, or a resource to take benefit, BUT it is the very space that allows us to exist and thrive. It is not just our duty but also our moral obligation to ensure that we do the best that we can to save our planet, by reducing our carbon footprint. Whatever small changes we can make, will still help in making long term strides towards a greener environment and a sustainable future.
